Richie Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 I believe there is a copy in Motherwell Library so you should be able to loan it (and the other ones) from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

real dosser Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Don't know if this is any use but backpagenewcastle.com still have the book for sale on their website. Â Mibees it's an old web page but you could always try; I think they give a phone number you could ring before parting with any cash.

East Stand Screamer Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 I have this and another one called, I think, My Father Knew Joe Wark Too, or something. Funnily, both tell roughly the same story, but one tells it from the perspective of the SS Battlebus, and the other from a good wee chap who would never do any of that nasty casual stuff, no surreebob. Â Anyone want them, make me an offer on PM and I'll think about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenix Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 Saturday is Service Day is a book cherished by a lot of people, a book which tells the story as it was, a book that tells the story as it happened, the people in the book have fuzzy memories of the facts behind the day, being so pumped up for the occasion or being drunk or hiding behind a big guy going ahead with the opposition. I remember the Queen St incident the most and never been so scared in my whole life apart from Meadowbank away, but hey ho in for a penny in for a pound or as my old man used to say to me when trying to talk sense into a young teenage son intent on being a fan who fought their corner on the terrace, fly with the crows you will get shot with the crows but never let your mates down.

steelman1991 Posted November 6, 2010 Report Share Posted November 6, 2010 Meadowbank away? - take it this had more to do with Hibs than Meadowbank? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkySuperSub Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 Totally passed me by, the whole casual thing. I started going to 'Well games aged 14 in 1988, so I could have quite easily fell into the whole scene. I just don't get it though. Why go to a game thinking (hoping?) you're gonna get a punch in the face at some point in the afternoon. I thought it was all bollocks back in the day and I still think its all bollocks now. And I certainly don't need to be reading some half-arsed, over-exaggerated and egotistical account about how 'we' done over some fucking firm or whatever back in the day. No offence, but I just think it's all bollocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
