Bzzzz Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 (edited) On Monday evening, we were alerted to disappointing news, Stewart Todd posted a picture and a headline on Twitter: 'Seriously, what is wrong with folk? Why would anyone do this?? @Hampdeners The picture revealed our world famous #1stHampdenMural, showcasing the world's first purposefully built international football stadium and one of Scotland's greatest victories, had been seriously vandalised. There has been a huge amount of hard work gone in to researching, designing, planning and producing this mural not to mention the help received from so many wonderful people from far and wide that contributed to the crowdfunder to help realise the dream. This mural belongs to everyone, all those involved in creating it, to the local community, to Glasgow, to Scotland and to the amazing sporting history of this site. We will restore our mural to it's original brilliance and ensure it is protected for everyone to enjoy and be proud of once again. #Restore1stHampden https://www.glasgowlive.co.uk/news/glasgow-news/hampden-football-mural-cruelly-thoughtlessly-17775206 https://hampdencollection.com/ Edited February 19, 2020 by Bzzzz Adding link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exile Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Well for what it's worth, the mural will be restored, but the graffiti 'artist's work will not be mourned, revered or restored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Munro Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 All these wee gimps who does these things have their own unique 'tags' so might not be too hard to find out who that one belongs to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wanderer Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Terrible. The Sunshine Appeal are holding a quiz night in a few weeks time here, and Graeme contacted me yesterday heart broken over this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
