Monkeys Fist 43224 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Me and my Dad bumped in to Supermac in the mid 70s on Grey Street, as he was coming away from his Boutique on High Bridge. I was suitably awestruck for a young ‘un, my Dad said, criminally underwhelmed, ” How Mac!” and Supermac responded in kind. Few steps further down and my old man, clearly upset by Mr. MacDonald’s flares and flowery shirt, mutters “ Bloody ponce”. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a guest player. Mind you I had turned 50 and he was around 70, he only played 20 minutes but you could still see the magic. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
