    That's where Yogi got the Yogi name.

    Which, incidentally, he has been trying to tell us he doesn't want to be called any more!

    I don't think thats our "Yogi" they are on about. There was a Celtic player called Hughes in those days and he may have had the nickname Yogi. Good player if I remember right.

    As I lived on the other side of the Atlantic for a number of years, one of my favourite sporting heroes there was Yogi Berra.

    Here's his Wiki entry:

    Note that wonderful quote!

    Remind you of anyone??

    Memory very bad these days and if he did break Bobbys leg I've changed my opinion on him.... ****in animal. But my memory is not that bad to forget that goal Bobby scored against Napoli(sp) in the Fairs Cup, left the great Dino Zoff helpless

    The crack could be heard all around the ground. Dont remember the tackle, just the noise.

    I do. The Bear chased after BD and took a wild swing from behind him. Tackling from behind was allowed in them days, but not that kind of "tackle". I think we got a free kick, but the ref did not speak to The Bear.

    Despite that, I think John Clark was the dirtier player in Celtc's team then. Made McManus seem a puss.
