I used to watch Jim Denny in reserve games and he was head and shoulders above the rest,just wasn't able to step up a gear to the top. Anotherl question might be, when will Alex Ferguson and Roger Hynd get the respect they derserve ? both pushing j.d. for the title Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcoholic 1,348 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I remember as a kid going "Aw naw, no Jim Denny" Used to be scared to look at the program in case he was in it. No matter how awful a player he might have been, he'll always be 100 times some of the players we've had since Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to have a midfielder that had quite a curve on his back. He was a decent enough player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

doc holliday 1,653 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 He is a good bear,a trier who gave his all.I do remember him ,not a great player but you could not fault him for commitment and endeavour. He does not deserve to be slagged off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tannerall 25,935 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Nicky Law was another unfairly castigated player , the main driving force in our rise from lower league obscurity to the top division, seldom missed a game, and top scorer ahead of Boyd and Miller in 2015-16. Not bad, when you consider the mediocrity of the players around him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He rose above the mediocrity more than anyone and deserved a shot in the top flight with us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing I remember, apart from the goal itself, was wee Bud bouncing the ball off Provan's head before his long throw to Alex Miller for the goal. What an assist.

The Widow's Son 399 Posted September 14, 2020 Author Share Posted September 14, 2020 Once again, I'm amazed at the trajectory of a thread - jogged memories, some good, some bad, nice wee bit of footage that I had long forgot and some spin-off questions about Ferguson and Hand. Thoroughly enjoyed the reading. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
