Quote from: AustinPowers on November 18, 2025, 10:34:01 AMThe shankhill bomb wasn't  long before this match.  I think some of the players even said later that  the abuse they got coming in on the bus and warming up was  absolutely shocking. Then you had Bingham whipping up  the hatred , when  considering the tension at the time , he should have been doing the opposite. Bitter b@stard.

I do remember a few supporters  in the stand cheering McLoughlin's goal , and I thought they're brave! I think the  away supporters weren't allowed in,  given the situation.

I think I heard  somewhere that Big Jack tackled Bingham afterwards about  his  behaviour.

I wonder what the NI  catholic players felt about that night.  I can't understand why any catholic player would want  to play  for the north

Was there not something about Jack walking up to him and giving him the middle finger?

This fills in some gaps

Super article.

Billy Bingham was a sectarian bigot and it took an English world cup winner to put him in his place.
Never underestimate the power of complaining

1991

Freddie Mercury died.

I remember seeing  it on the breakfast news while getting  ready for school.

34 years ago. Mad.

Munchie

Was in the halls of residence at Queens, folk were in bits crying and consoling each other, I remember it vividly as I had no idea why folk were in such a state.

That was a shock. I remember Ayrton Senna and Kurt Cobain dying around that time as wel. All shocking.
