    Jarkko Wiss in the Evening News

    Story here

    Doesn't look like he's saying much, but there's a lot of unseen words going on

    Didn't get the credit he deserved when he played here. Was judged almost exclusively on the fact that he has an easily rhymed surname.

    I saw Derek and Nid run up and have a quick blether with him during the warm up SH......was Derek saying something like "oh there you are.....where you been hiding" He was more elusive than Brian Kerr (Wiss, not Deek).

    Come on guys. he was hard working & honest but that was about it. Still credit him with the greatest height I have ever seen a ball kicked, straight up & I swear it came down with ice on it, about 3 feet from where he was still standing.

    Brian Kerr
    Hurtado, the tank
    Nish

    have also suffered monstrously from a similar unfortunate circumstance, and shouting "Konte baws" from the stands was never going to help.

    Agreed. Think Colin Nish suffers from the same problem.

    Surely big Colin has turned the corner though. He's got his own song now

    I was pretty young when Wiss was playing but I remember well him overhitting every corner high and past the back post.

    It is good to see old players return, they would not bother their erse to do so if they did not hold their time with us enjoyable. I bet he was taken with East Mains and the new East.

    Magnificent as the new East is, not sure if it's visible from Lanarkshire. (Though the yams' new stand will be, obviously - you'll be able to see it from the Great Wall of China.)

    No you won't. Vlad has ordered that it is dismantled and will be used for his super duper 5 star hotel in Gorgie.

    No he wasn't. He was judged on that fact that in all the time he was here he never once trapped the ball.
    At Easter Road They Play.....

    Jarkko's silky one-touch style was too advanced for his team mates at the time. You now see the likes of Arsenal play twenty, thirty consecutive one-touch passes, and no-one complains about their players not trapping the ball, but we simply didn't have the players for that then.

    I'm sure he hit the bar with a raker against Celtic in a draw which might have been Sauzee's lasrt game. Strangely I seem to remember him being a good corner taker.

    He may not have been the greatest player every to grace Easter Road but a nicer guy you would not meet. He opened a supermarket I was working at and as Jarkko was injured, he did the opening. He was great with everybody, old and young that day. He stayed over an hour longer than we booked him for.

    After that he would pop in after a home game for 4 tins and a couple of bottles of wine. If I saw him he would always say 'don't tell anyone'

    Don't think he will mind me telling everyone on hibsnet now

    The guy standing behind him in the picture is my mate and was speaking to him.

    He got invited to the old firm game by John park so decided to go watch the mighty cabbage whilst here.
