So Johnny Hewitt smashed up his tv remote control then chucked it in the sea. Then went to Costco to buy batteries for a replacement remote he bought from some unspecified retail outlet?

He’s maybe smashed up a load of remotes after watching some of the play at this World Cup knowing he could out class them all

That’s not Nicolas in the photo is it?

Some partnership that if Nicholas had stayed just one more season we would have one the league that infamous campaign 

[strachanmcgheegoal]

The whole 87- 90 phase was epic and gut wrenching in equal measure.

I deliberately omit 91 as my memory is we peaked a bit off the Rogan cup final and only really got our shit together at the end of the season following, basically coming from nowhere, relatively speaking i.e. not relative to now.

I seem to recall 92-93 was the better football.

Probably yes but Nicholas was never staying with us any longer than he absolutely had to. Remember he asked for a transfer not much more than a year later...although to his credit he knuckled down and got on with things when it was refused.

Whether he ever REALLY wanted to be with us is open to debate. Wasn't getting a game at Arsenal and supposedly wanted to try his luck abroad. A fee was agreed with Toulon in France for his transfer but before it went through, George Graham suddenly blocked it. He then blocked him moving to 3 other English clubs....IIRC 2 of them were Newcastle and Forest...the third eludes me. By the time we came in for him (and even we jumped the gun, announcing it on Hogmanay when it didn't actually happen  for about a week later) I'm sure he was just desperate to leave for anywhere. 

[strachanmcgheegoal]

 Cheers.  Doesn’t look like him in the photo mind but the stance and hairy thighs are totally him.

I went to the Sky Sports presenters thing a few weeks ago at the Music Hall and he said as much. Totally honest he didn’t want to come here but when he did he gave his all so fair play to him for that.

Must've enjoyed it enough. 2 medals pocketed.

 

Quite mental to think we were signing an Arsenal first team player, millions of miles from that now.

I went to a Cove Christmas lunch thing at Ardoe House a few years back, where Nicholas was guest speaker. He was asked from the floor, when you strolled up to take your penalty v Celtic in the Scottish Cup Final in 1990, knowing you were going back there the following season, what was going thru your mind? Answer - my bonus. 
Great player but his career effectively ended when he initially left Celtic in 1983, never the same player again, in my opinion. Basically went thru the motions when at Aberdeen.

Nae quite sure about that, Hans and him were possibly the best partnership I’ve seen live. Forgot to ask why he never used to come out for the warm up. Must have been a superstitious thing?

Well he certainly chose the wrong club when he left Celtic. Had the chance to join Liverpool who were still at that time hoovering up domestic and European trophies and could have learnt from Dalglish who was by then in the latter part of his playing career. Arsenal were decent in the cup competitions but were also rans in the league at that time. Nicholas just wanted the party lifestyle in the bright lights of London.

No question of that. Got him the opportunity to shaft Sam Fox and Tereza Bazar so in all honesty…….
