WILLIE WAS a character

[@tramlad2]

Loved both these guys proper footballers and great fun, and i'm Scottish they used to run us ragged, but they were first class guys

[@Basman59]

Willie Johnston ran England ragged a fair few times too. Legend Bally and Mick back when football was football for the fans.

[@2msvalkyrie529]

Same here . I used to hate him at one time . ! When I was young and foolish. Later I realised what a class guy and player he was .

[@trueblue2124]

What a player Bally was - at Everton we adored him - - sometimes if we had a free kick he would shove the ball up the back of his shirt then stare at the referee moaning and shouting stern faced "were's the ball ref"! ?- his back would face the crowd with the ball stuck up his shirt so we could see it , but not the ref - - -the ref would then run off and return with a new ball - only to find the first one was back - so we then had two - - -lol - - - so funny - - -he did that a lot - - happy days as they say - - - god bless him - - -

[@THEKIDCOD2000]

they was two super players. good personalities as well.

BIG UP RERSPECT TO ALAN BALL

[@meestermeesterhastings.3159]

Mick when taking a corner at the Dell would ask " what won the 3.30".

[@lengthmuldoon]

Nothing like these 2 anywhere in the game today no wonder older fans hate the manufactured product that is todays football

[@matgood6231]

When Alan Ball played for whitecaps for the cup final all the players were introduced and ran through a giant ball to run on to the pitch , Ball walked through 😂 it was awesome. Here to play not wasting any energy lol. Another whitecaps game in our version of a penalty shot shootout where you dribbled in and had to score with 5 seconds on the clock Willie had scored his attempt where as his old teammate on opposing team missed and Willie bent over and gave his buddy a bare ass . Red card and suspended. We saw him in the concourse next home game and I got to get his autograph! 8 years old he was my idol 😁

[@Isleofskye]

Great stories,my friend.

Yes,Alan Ball was right..These days we have diving&cheating(Or should i say :simulation)' treated as some kind of special skill!

[@johnlowdon5809]

Fantastic players in an era where a lots of sides had fantastic players ,not like the vastly overpaid overpriced so called stars of today.

[@peterreid9769]

Roger Kenyon didn't ever score for Vancouver Whitecaps.

[@LiberalLoser]

It was Peter Daniel according to You Tube clip. Bally remembered the important bit.

[@Lord_Hillcrest]

The story was right but he got the player wrong , big deal , it wasnt a can it was a bottle . so what ?

I know a story about Willie Johnston. He played for Scotland in their opening game of the 1978 World cup against Peru. Despite the players being asked beforehand if they took anything, Willie said nothing, and gubbed a couple of Reactivan tablets. Willie was chosen to take a drugs test after the game, failed it, and was sent home in disgrace. Oh how we laughed!

[@alanquinn2542]

Why were u supporting Ireland drugs my arse ffs probly a joint or strong coffee ethier who gives a fuck

[@martinreynolds6027]

Was that 1 of the world Cup finals that Scotland appeared at, and Engerland failed to qualify for? Bit of jealousy in that comment pal.

[@TheCosmicFunker]

@@alanquinn2542 If that question was directed at me, I wasn't supporting Ireland. I was supporting Scotland. Johnston's cheating could have led to Scotland being eliminated from the tournament, if we had been good enough to beat Peru.

[@TheCosmicFunker]

@@martinreynolds6027 I'm a Scotland fan, mate. The oh how we laughed comment was sarcasm. I can see how you may have thought I was mocking Scotland, but I definitely wasn't. I was having a moan about that arsehole Johnston
