    My original question related to when the name of the covered terracing opposite the Main Stand changed from the Hayshed to the Jungle.

     

     

    I have never heard the Hayshed name used by my father’s generation who were born in the 20’s.

     

     

    However I had read about the Hayshed name from several sources — but did not understand the timing of the changeover plus why.

     

     

    The comment about 1945 war veterans giving it that name due to the noise of the rain on the roof seemed to knit all these strands together — timing / reason / lack of knowledge to me in the 1970’s.

     

     

    If you want to ask a few questions about 50’s / early 60’s plans to expand P/head with a new stand in place of the Jungle then that would help me understand that piece of family history.

    I was at the Wolves game referred to below. I KNOW I never heard anyone refer to The Jungle ( nor any other part of our Ground) as The Hayshed.

     

     

    “Significant improvements were carried out between 1957 and 1971, partly due to the great success Celtic achieved under the management of Jock Stein.[1] A roof was built over the back of the western “Celtic End” terrace in 1957,[22] while floodlights were installed in 1959.[1] They were first used on 12 October, in a friendly match against Wolves.[1] The northern “Hayshed” terrace, which became known as the “Jungle”, was concreted in 1966 “

    GFTB if you are about. I really appreciate your defence of me. Never seen the comments. More to be pitied than scorned. 👍

  5. Anyway,

     

    it`s a Cheerio from me. I will look in tomorrow for any advancement on the Hayshed topic.

     

    Cheerio for now.

    I haven`t seen any posts criticising you but , for what it is worth, I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANY POSTS OF YOURS WORTHY OF THE REMOtEST CRITICISM. Maybe they are from a rival publican who would like your custom :-))

    No defence needed for your good self but the skeekitness annoys me

     

     

    On a Celtic site about other Celtic fans …(in my opinion) it’s no right

  8. Huns refused to play on Thursday, as less gate money, hospitality for their game moved to the Sunday

  9. A few renditions of God save the King heard pretty clearly today at Anfield. Assuming that was city fans at the wind up ?

    J next time you are in Edinburgh, visit 80 George St, you might meet a hero or 2 of yours

  12. SFTB @ 7.50

     

     

    How dare you talk about wee JC like that.

     

    Fair enough that he only scored three goals in two seasons.

     

    But he lived the dream — straight out of Annfield.

  13. Guys,

     

     

    Anything retro nowadays is cool. This Hayshed thingy could catch on with the trendy young team

     

     

    Imagine the conversation in a trendy west end cafébar ( In the finest Glasgow University accent) while sipping Gin and Dubbonet.

     

     

    Golly gosh Spencer, just been perusing the old bean’s site of CQN and these jolly heated seats within the North Stand used to be called the Hayshed.

     

    Oh reel eeeh. How cosmic, replies Rafferty. Capital exclaims Ignatius.

     

     

    How super would it be to sit or even stand in the Hayshed when we go to Parkers Wilfred exclaims. Jolly good show.

     

     

    Chaps, our new silk woven F@ck the Tories banner would look spiffing there.

     

     

    But Wills, our soooper new banner isn’t ready yet.

     

     

    Aw poppycock.

     

    ————

     

     

    Fanciful, I wouldn’t be too sure. 😀🤣🤣🤣

    Ha ha, I doubt I could keep up with BRRB. Would love to give it a try, but I fear crawl would be the dominant part of pubcrawl.

     

     

    Would love to hear BRRB exploits on the legendary Glesga subcrawl.
