Worst 1970/80's player pic

[worcesterhibby]

Even at the age of 10 when I was buying Panini stickers in 1978 I realised that some of the mughsots they used were pretty uncomplimentary…so come on let's have a bit of an internet trawl and come up with the best two unflattering posed player pics from the 70' and 80's…post one Hibs player and one non-Hibs player…and they must be posed shots..not action shots…

then I want the coolest

here is my offering

Des Bremner looking like an utter nutter

Oh Come on you boring lot that picture of Gilbert is awesome...

[Hermit Crab]

There is an absoloute howler of a picture of David moyes out there when he was at possibly Dunfermline.

[Oscar T Grouch]

I collected panini stickers in the early 80s, I have none of them left now. I seem to remember Mo Johnstons patrick thistle photo being rather unflattering.

I agree the photo of Gilbert is a classic, I think he may have been a Peter Sellers fan, as I have a photo of him somewhere with a similar jersey and glasses too :greengrin

Yes you could put a whole Album together of classic Pettigrew stickers…not surprisingly the one he looks best in is when he ended up on a double sticker with Davie Dodds, but anyone would look normal next top him. Nice to see he saves the worst for when he was playing for Hearts.

[heretoday]

St Johnstone used to have a left back called Coburn in the sixties.

He was so ugly that when he embarked on a run down the wing - which thankfully wasn't often - the front row of the old North Enclosure would automatically sway back.

He had - as one of the many wonderful terracing wags of the time put it - a face "only a mother could love". :wink:

Yes. Diego Costa is a bit of a throwback to the '70s footballer. Looks about 45 and likes a tear up...

Mal Robertson in that rogues gallery looks like the sort youd see on a fancy dress stag do - wig and false 'tache.

This explains a lot, because there was a guy called Walter who looked exactly like him that I used to see standing at the upstairs bar in the Conan Doyle (on his todd) downing loads of pints nearly every Friday night during the late 80s.
