Posso Blue 17 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 What a fuckin guy.....didn't know whether to laugh or cry watching the big man.He was either 15 out of 10 some weeks or -5 out of 10!!!!When on song he was like something from 'It's A Knockout ' where a combination of himself not even knowing what he was gonna do next to totally bulldozing through defenders leaving a trail of destruction behind him.Smashing guy big 'Kevin' !!!!

jamess 3,422 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Was a welcomed distraction during some dark days. Fell over his own feet more often than stopped by a tackle. A name I remember with a smile. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A name I remember with a smile.I remember one game where he roasted Willie McStay at Ibrox and got him sent off as we won 3-0 and if memory serves me right I'm sure our management team(Superally&Durranty) scored a goal apiece that day!!!

macranger 296 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Sometimes I couldn't believe he kept the ball at his feet. Seemed like luck more than anything else. But I must admit, he played his heart out for us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzzieBear 204 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Scored from a corner at dumbarton (I think). First time I had ever seen that at a proffesional game.I had Seen it at before at PE, on a blaze pitch, with an orange mitre 10, and a force 10 Gail, worst player in class was in goal and ducked. Big teds was a bit more class. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimjim1690 4,534 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 He certainly knew how to put a smile on your face when watching him, I used to be genuinely upset when he was dropped, he was a real entertainer, defenders never knew how to handle him, I can still visualize him dropping his shoulder and setting of on a mazy run. My mates used to say "he's gonny bring back a pie and bovril one of these days", sadly there are no characters like Ted in the game anymore.

allcinaye 336 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 The Tin Man brings a smile to my face when I remember some of his performances. What an entertainer.Ted going on a run with the ball at his feet, being tackled by first one defender and then almost simultaneously by another resulting in all three of them floundering about on the pitch, then Ted tumbling over and emerging with the ball as if stuck to his foot would canter on down the left wing have a shot at goal and almost hit the opposite corner flag.Ted McMinn synonymous with – expect the unexpected.
