I never paid much attention to Billy until I listened to this on an audio tape and nearly peed myself laughing. Have loved him ever since. Definitely one of Scotland's finest.
I have this on original vinyl. I remember listening to it on an old turntable with massive headphones. Its amazing how it all comes flooding back after 40 odd years verbatim in my head.
This is so clever as a story, because Billy doesn't attribute a club to this "hero". He is both sides and in that way, it is a perfect Glasgow story. This is why Billy is revered. He simply is the master story teller.
ive met billy several times on glasgow streets way bk when he done stand up. n i stopped him n asked him how he was doing. to his reply...well im here in my home town so i must b doing something right. lol then i got his autograph
AnFear Mór That's big "yin" and nobody calls him that in Glasgow. Made up bullshit. I remember him in the BBC club in Glasgow before he made it big and still spoke like a Glaswegian. Listen to that fake plummy accent he spouts now. Total bawbag. And a tarrier to boot,feck him.
@Stuart Penman billy Connelly mocks everyone the queen the pope the Scots english Irish THE QUEEN .... YOU ...thats what he does n he does it so very very well its almost believable .....BUT billy is a Celtic man through and through and born and raised a Catholic in Glasgow if he was born a protestant in Glasgow he would be a rangers fan .....what a horrible thought eh ????? The irony of his jokes is obv lost on you ......but yes he has a point to makes and speaks it freely but he has not mocked our club or the history of Celtic fc n why we were established ....IVE STARTED RANTING HAVEN'T I ???? Lol
@Stuart Penman Celtic was founded on bigotry and greed ????? Who told u that u madman .....n hey why should he no be paly wae Charlie and the queen a working class catholic boy fae glesgo hob nobbing with the TOFFS awwww he will be in his glory ....so wid a coz as billy says GOD SAVE THE QUEEN ??? WELL A SUPOSE SHE COULD BE SAVED N GOD IS THE VERY MAN FOR THE JOB LOL ....🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Is that you best attempt at hilarity Denis i'v been to around 50 old firm games when Celtic were poor from 89 till 2001 i think Celtic won 1 trophy in that 12 year period now it's Rangers turn for the humiliation from 2012 till present day what i do know is if a Celtic fan stood up in the Rangers end or a Rangers fan did it in the Celtic end if the Police never got to him before rival fan's he would be stabbed or punched and kicked till he was knocked out.I saw a Celtic fan caught at the motorway near the Celtic end get beat up knocked out cold then drooped onto the motorway amazingly no car hit him and he lived though he has disability problems as he suffered brain damage.If you Google Old firm murders you'll see how lethal this fixture is over the year's with the body count..
