[QUOTE="SoundMan, post: 6982227, member: 28532"] Ta, I'd never seen that before. But of course Jock Brown is a bit of a fantasist. [I][B]"So I then got a very special dispensation about driving where I could break traffic regulations in certain circumstances. And I had a number to call if I had a problem. And I didn’t even talk about the death threats.”[/B][/I] Even without talking about the alleged death threats he had a special dispensation about driving where he could break traffic regulations - I find that very hard to believe. I don't recall any of those who had received actual death threats including bullets and bombs in the post, and indeed Lennon being assaulted on the street and in Tynecastle as well being given a dispensation from the police to break the speed limits. And of course Jock Brown still managed to get caught speeding and was prosecuted for it. His total arrogance that he went to court to contest a speeding fine speaks volumes about the guy. [I][B] "even as someone who “lived within spitting distance of Celtic Park all my life” - in hailing from Hamilton"[/B][/I] That must have been some spit as it's about 10Km of built up area between Hamilton and Celtic Park - Motherwell fair enough is only over the road from Hamilton, or Blantyre or Bothwell, Uddingston or even Bellshill. But Celtic Park????? I don't f**ken think so. It didn't help his case at the time with the supporters that his brother had signed for the huns as a youngster from the accies and in later life had left a "We're up to our knees in fenian blood" message on his partners answering machine.
