Athletes All of Them...


But who are they and when was this photo taken? I suspect Ken Fitlike will know instantly!

  1. Despite being almost totally obscured by the trophy Drew Jarvie is instantly identifiable!
    Big Davie Robb is a particular hero of mine and deserved his celebratory ciggy for getting the winner that day

  2. A smoking drunken rabble in a bath?
    I immediately thought of Hibernian till I noticed the silverware!

  3. Good one Adullamite! As Ken knows, this was Aberdeen after they won the League Cup in 1976. They beat Celtic 2-1 after extra-time in the final - after they hammered Rangers 5-1 in the semi-final. Davie Robb, Joe Harper, Drew Jarvie and the present Dundee manager Jocky Scott are all there. And I think that's Joe Smith with the dark hair at the back although I'm sure Ken will confirm.

    A rare shot of Joey Harper slugging back some drink!
