wee_mad_al Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Guys, a few years ago there was a brilliant hi res picture of Faddy thumping the ball from behind for the goal against France. I've searched the archives high and low but cant find it again. Does anybody have it or a link Cheers Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordanovic Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I remember I'd just sparked a cigar and got chatting to a young lad next to me (from montrose from memory), seen it was a goalkick so we turned to talk to each other - only just turned back round when the ball hit the back of the net!!! Don't know if it was the same for anyone else, but there was a split second where all the scotland fans looked at each other (felt much, much longer) before erupting!! will never forget the french after the game applauding us for our exemplary behaviour. Policemen taking off their hats and randoms congratulating us in the streets. Fantastic! I remember saying to one lad 'if you had Zidane still, you'd have won - best player in the world' - his response? 'non, non - McFadden best player in the world' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peever1745 Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 There is a great painting of this or at least a print of the painting in the Heb in Edinburgh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was chatting and then had to double takk to my old mans mate, before going nuts!J Edited April 14, 2015 by Bristolhibby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd highly recommend it (and did to numerous friends) https://www.tartanarmychildrenscharity.org.uk/main/the-news/headline-news/406-well-always-have-paris-the-fans-stories.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
