Worst 1970/80's player pic

***worcesterhibby*** · 18-03-2015 05:03 PM

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

Peter Boyle of Clyde

and the coolest by far….

Gilber Gress…Coach of Strasbourg in the late 1970's

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

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

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

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.

***worcesterhibby*** · 18-03-2015 09:15 PM

Gilbert Gress wasn't a one pic wonder either, although perhaps nothing beats the sticker image, some of these are classic

That is the classic Hearts look, is it not?

That last one, in the fur coat? Even George Best could not have made it look better, proper class

I was thinking much the same myself. Signed and sealed with a kiss.

TBH, guys, I was just thinking that I would have paid good money to see Terry Hurlock do the business on Fat Joe back in the day.

Still would, actually.

Or Norman Hunter.

Or Nobby Stiles.

Or Chopper Harris.

Or Ian Storey.

Or all five of them at the same time ....

Apparently they considered using BB's neb as an emergency ski jump in the Winter Olympics.

If he doesn't I will personally frame a picture of wee Joe for over his bed. I mean oor Doddie is too old for pictures of Blondie now anyway......

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".
