    Big thanks to all who replied to my post.  Big Vancouver shout-out to JCB for the details of this game which had me scuttling to the bookcase in my den to dredge up details from a Glasgow Herald almanac of Old Firm fixtures.  Too many years, too many beers ............. but I'm clean and sober now.  

     

     

    have a drink you'll get over it

    Seems the pitches were muddier, the tackles fiercer, the crowds louder, the songs more bitter in the old days.  More arrests too perhaps.  I only have vague recollections of Mr. Wharton refereeing Old Firm games, largely cup finals.  I met him quite a few years ago and he was kindly and very well-spoken if cautious.  Well-respected by both sets of fans if I recall correctly.  Now that is saying something for Celtic fans.  Wikipedia confirms he did officiate at a good few cup finals in the 1960's and perhaps other Old Firm games too.  Remember a bad-tempered affair, late 1960's, early 1970's when he was the ref.  I think that a Celtic player opened the scoring in his own net but I have few recollections of that day.  Can any other, more seasoned bears help me out with this one?

    absolutely hated him as a ref in our games against that shower of shite but that's just my opinion 

    my brother if he was alive today would tell he worked for a company owned by wharton and he was a prick

    so what this means is my thoughts + my late brothers thoughts 

    = Wharton was an absolute prick

    Who does the OP refer to when he says "You"

    And also in reference to poor performances and fans, what really can we do?

    Voice our displeasure?

    Big deal, ain't going to chance much. 

    Only thing that gets any attention is cutting the income stream via tickets, merchandise and in stadium refreshments............ and that is Sons Of Suicide

    fixed that for you

    Because your dad is a snake who is trying to get personal info, addresses and workplaces of bears spread all over the internet.

    Fuck him and your shite pub, I'll be telling every bear I know to avoid it like the plague.

    I don't need telling I've avoided it for years
