Special aka Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I like Tannadice. It's kinda quirky but very atmospheric. Certainly has come on since my 1st trip there. Mid 70's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Diggle Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I like Tannadice. It's kinda quirky but very atmospheric. Certainly has come on since my 1st trip there. Mid 70's Best trip for me was the 1-1 (i think) season opener in 1989 (i think). Cusack's first league goal. Right healthy 'well support on the terracing behind the goal (where the stand that Utd now occupy is). canny beat a healthy support bedecked in claret in amber on a right sunny day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was working in the Rococo that night, and he and Paul McLean came to the door. Mr Cusack was right chuffed when I recognised him, proclaiming that afternoon's goal as a right cracker. Signed them both in, and they were regulars thereafter. Reckon wee Tam shafted him, not having him in the Cup Final squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geedub Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 What's the reasoning with the half finished L shaped stand? Similar reason to our main perhaps? Edit: I know it's finished now but in the older pics? It just looks ridiculous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
numpty Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Reckon wee Tam shafted him, not having him in the Cup Final squad. Tough call, though. Do you pick the team that you think is going to win you the cup, or the team you think the fans might like best? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frazzie Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Tough call, though. Do you pick the team that you think is going to win you the cup, or the team you think the fans might like best? That point is null and void when you consider Colin O'Neil made the squad ahead of both Cusack and Philliben. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malky79 Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 That point is null and void when you consider Colin O'Neil made the squad ahead of both Cusack and Philliben. It's null and void as we won the fucking thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mid 70's Did they not have some sorta weird terracing too? Started beneath pitch level or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickoza Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Can't forget the cup tie in 93-94 when we were shoe-horned into that wee terracing bit in front of the "main stand". That'll be the bit which starts below pitch level. Magic atosphere, and brilliant wild celebrations at Softie' s late laveller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one time I think wee TomTom let sentiment get in the way, Psycho was nowhere near fit so it wasn't a football decision. Maybe he was there as cheerleader mind you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just missed the big fight outside the main stand at the end. Had kids spitting at us on the way back to the car and old men throwing lit fags at us. Left Dundee at 1700hrs and was back in Dundee the next day to start training to become a nurse. 16 years later still living in Dundee. Good job I was not put off eh.

Special aka Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Will never forget that day either. Just missed the big fight outside the main stand at the end. Due to the trouble outside and OB's decision not to let me up the hill, I couldn't get back to my mate's car, (where my car keys were - and my car was parked in Wishaw, while I lived in Leith), so I sponged a lift off a bus and got dropped off at Newbridge. I stood there for ages hoping the McClymonts would drive past and pick me up. But no ........ despite a lot of offers of a lift back to Motherwell from fellow Dossers I ended up walking into Edinburgh minus my car/house keys. I really should write a book Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
