Jimfanciesthedude 24,858 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Maybe. Decent football team though.much better than decent at the time, would have loved to been able to go to games back in they days, seeing old footage and reading books about teams like that makes me think sometimes that football is too "complicated" nowadays, for a better termwhen my grandad used to talk to me about football all he would say is that 11 guys tried to attack another 11 guys, then if they scored it was great, if they didnt then it was simply 11 guys trying to attack another 11 guys only in a different direction Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
boss 1,941 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Cracking footage - thanks for posting.I'd be up for such a (2nd/3rd) strip - with the logo: "Hoops since 1879" Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essandoh 21,304 Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 Football back then seemed so much less complicated, as jimbeam pointed out, and seemed to be played for nothing but passion. The same can't be said for it nowadays sadly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buggleskelly 3,772 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 When did Celtic start wearing hoops and claim it was them first?A juniors fan told me that sellick got the idea of wearing green & grey hoops when they seen St Anthony's wearing them.

peter huistra 1,740 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I'd like to see a QPR style kit . Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZZed 4,510 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Septic wore Hibs cast offs from 1903. We wore hoops well before that. They can't even claim to be the first to wear hoop in Glasgow as that is us or Queen Park. It would be fantastic to wear Royal Blue hoops again and when them moan, we remind them of our history.

WilliamFyfe 1,438 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 We could advertise such a kit like we did with the 1972 kit. Have the old kit next to the new retro one. Show the world our history. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
one55 1,510 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I wouldn't mind royal blue hoops just to piss of they Bheasts. We should do it when we get back to the premiership. How I'd love for us to beat them while wearing that top. Get it right fucking up ye's! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Manticore* 1,893 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 The hooped shirt from the early 60's. Not sure if this was just a one off kit though. Not really hooped, just white with (I think) a red and a blue band.You can get a version from Toffs I think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shuggy 1,308 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Never quite sure how great teams from the past would fare against modern teams. My assumption is they would lose as modern teams are fitter, faster and more tactically aware. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibroxholm 2,281 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Rangers winning toss and choosing to shoot towards Rangers end! Wouldn't get that nowadays.Referee looks very chic in his white blazer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanFerguson2013 398 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 No thanks. I'm happy with vertical stripes but nothing which 'emulates' them please.The film is superb. I can remember standing at Ibrox in the olden days (I'm 60). It was a different world where people had far fewer things to do and you got massive crowds as seen here.

TMB 14,167 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 As to the OP, I would 100% take it, purely so we could wind them up by stealing their precious hoops off them.They would be ducking beeling.I think we wore hooped tops before they did.

Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I think we wore hooped tops before they did.I know, but I don't think there is any people who can remember us playing in them, and the tims see them as THEIRS, so it would be good to remind them that "their precious" hoops, are actually ours. They would fucking hate it. Especially if we only brought out two kits, both hoops and they had to play in their away kit at scumheid and we were wearing hoops and beat them lol.
