More to the point ... I remember that from the time, like all Scots I like to see our sportspeople do well, even if they are representing a made up country I want to see dissolved ASAP. Imagine then having my unconditional support which even applies to folk I know are Yams or Currant Buns rammed down my throat by having one of them reference my worst day as a fitba fan ..... making her the only Scottish sportsperson in any sport at any time of my life I have actually taken pleasure in seeing get beaten.

Other candidates for their celebrity fans list are of course Edinburgh city council and the Edinburgh branch of the H&SE

I remember getting wound up by this, at the time she was meant to be representing the whole of Scotland and she pulled this crap.

Not worth it, that wee gesture was probably actually a career highlight.

Dean Owens, singer. Only Jambo in Leith that I knew growing up in the 70's. Couldnae have been an easy life given how Tom Kite they were.

Ken Buchanan is 100% a jambo. Used to take his dad, a Hibby, to ER.

Yeah he's a Jambo unfortunately. A special fighter was Ken. Arguably the best boxing technician Britian has ever produced. He was a sublime boxer and as tough as nails.

I’m too young, didn’t have the pleasure. I speak to him quite regularly, he’s quite engaging when sober, and totally boring when pished, like us all I suppose

I though Ken Buchanan was in care / hospitalised?

To be fair to her she had to be a Hertz ****. She looks so much like one.

I’ve heard the Tam O Shanter called many things, but never a hospital!

He stays in the same sheltered accommodation as my mother in Leith. He is looking well just now.

Aye a real Leith ballot.

Used to run into him in Leith Walk a lot when he was drunk. Always asked me for a a fight. Always replied I don't want to spoil my no losses record against you. So no.

**Pete** · 11-02-2018 01:49 PM

They can have whoever they like but they’ll never have the reputation, the place in popular culture and the stylishness that we have.

Maybe that’s why they’re so bitter.

Ah, understood. And that's good news. hope your mum is well too.
I remember when I was very young, Hibs had KB on the pitch at half time with his belt. Might've been Falkirk in a League cup tie. He was very highly thought of by my old man and those around me. The Ken Buchanan Hotel on the Links was also a place of some repute.

Same here. Still can't understand why she felt the need to do that when competing for her country.

Completely lacking in class.

Ken is boxing royalty. He's very highly regarded in the boxing world. A Hall of Famer. One of the greatest British boxers of all time. A master technician. Tremendous fighting spirit. Iron Jaw. Ridiculous stamina. The only thing he didn't possess was punching power, but he wasn't feather fisted either. Most Scots dont realise how good he was which is a shame. It even got Mike Tyson raging when he fought in Scotland. Mike couldn't believe most of the country didn't know who he was.

His old man worked the Reception at the Dental Hospital on Dalkeith Rd I think. Not that Ken Buchanan ever knocked my teeth oot. That honour belonged to someone far less capable.

Ken was a world class boxer, right at the top of a division that had plenty good fighters in it. I loved watching him. Top Scottish sportsman no doubt about it.

The hotel was on ferry road, now called victoria park hotel

My Auntie Barbara beat him up for bullying her pal when they were young kids growing up in Portobello.

Jo Brand took Hearts as her Scottish team after going to see them while see was appearing at the festival.

I think they also 'adopted' that Greg from Masterchef, for some reason....

He regularly drinks in the central bar. Seen him last night there.

I don't think they include that in his win loss record :)

Well said and spot on

If Ken was competing in this era of boxing he'd be worth an absolute fortune.
