Cliff Hanley huffing and puffing was getting on my nerves. I grew up in the 60's in the East End and Celtic were my local club so I supported them. My work-mate out of Bell Street Cleansing Depot at the time of this programme was an Orangeman who played in the band. He was a god guy -always had a laugh with him and I know he had Catholic friends. He and I would go to the games, sing our songs - at opposite ends of the ground - and then be pals at work on the Monday. What was the problem? To-days hypersensitive snowflakes outraged at everything get on my nerves much more than old Cliff Hanley.
Fantastic documentary. This is the Glasgow I remember. It brings back memories of coming of age. The 1970s weren't perfect (no time was perfect) but I'd go back there in a heartbeat and never return. I wonder if anyone recognises themselves or any of the supporters on the terracing?
Thanks Steve, a fascinating slab of Scottish history, which was by turns; disturbing, enjoyable and nostalgic. I particularly enjoyed the footage of proper tackles and players getting up immediately or staying on their feet, a bygone era indeed.
As Steve indicates with his intro words, 95% of the comments below show that not much has changed in the past 40 years sadly but it was certainly an interesting watch. I support one of the Glasgow big clubs but I'll think I'll keep which one to myself. Happy I live 14,000 miles away where if someone asks you what school you went to it is because they are actually interested. I still find that refreshing ands a way better place to bring up my kids.
“Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting. GEORGE ORWELL (in "The Sporting Spirit", Tribune, GB, London, December 1945)”
Thanks for putting this up.It's fascinating to see Glasgow back then and this has always been one of my favorite documentaries on any subject. It used to be hosted on the celticunderground page video section but sadly they no longer host it. I bought a dvd rip for it online but the quality is so poor it's virtually unwatchable. Hopefully it gets more of the attention it deserves. It's finally got an imdb profile now which is long overdue. Thanks again,
It's a good piece of documentary filmmaking. They don't or can't make them like that anymore. Look at the first couple of minutes and notice how there's not a word of dialogue. Slower pace than the break neck crap we see so much of on TV now.
I agree its a marvellous insight into the time, I notice how articulate everyone is, the emphasis on learning and manners comes out. Particularly Jimmy Reid , who would come form a long line of self educated shop stewards.
Don't remember it being acceptable, the opposite. Just went on behind closed doors. Go look at the papers 175 years ago, plenty jailed. But not enough was done to root it out. Not sure it's a whole lot better in 2024.@@AIJimmybad
Poor women and kids had very few rights until relatively recently so they were subject to brutalisation in all manner of ways. Most people born in the 21st century don't have to worry about this anymore.
God, I wish that Stein had gone into politics -He had a clarity that was profound -coupled with common sense and an intellect that belied his humble beginnings.
I stopped watching Rangers after the Cup Final riot of 80, sick of the agro and the violence. That was a rough day and an even rougher night getting back to Glasgow Central. My memories are stuck in the time warp of the 70s good and bad. It was.a different time, very different people both green and blue. Unfair to judge the folk back then with today’s hypocrisy. What an incredible documentary.
Thanks for this.....a Sassernach who comes in peace.....enjoyed this video. I dont follow either team of course but I think Scottish people should put aside the hatred and be glad they have two great football teams in Rangers and Celtic

I was born and raised in Edinburgh, and I still have no clue as to why the Irish got such a raw deal when they arrived in Scotland. The whole concept of the sectarianism just seems absurd to me. A great many people in the world find it difficult telling the Scots and the Irish apart, yet somehow, someone found the need to prolong a pointless and ridiculous divide.
Economic more than anything. When the recession hit suddenly there were Irishmen taking jobs by offering to do them half price etc etc. It's well documented. Also, after 400 000 Irish folk from the south came in those decades, another influx from the north came, both Catholics and Prods, and that was about the time the economy dipped, and just in time for the division to manifest itself. Not to mention that Protestants were the majority of the city and never wanted to live amongst Catholics, hence Catholic slums for Irish immigrants and highland Catholics, Gorbals, Calton , Gallowgate, Garngad. The seeds were sewn right away, it just took time to happen, and when it, it just got worse and worse. All over religion, how retarded.
I've always wondered why so many celtic fans are bitter, and spend so much time hating Rangers. This one sided, bias, excuse for a documentary, explains it to a certain extent. C Hanley's (full of descrepences) rant, proves he's part of the problem, that he's (very badly) trying to describe!
Steve Birrell it's biased and so are you, if you can't see it. Rangers did sign Catholics. Celtic were the only team founded on sectarian principles. (For the Irish Catholics.) To stop them going to the church of Scotland soup kitchens! Rangers were founded for the love of the game, & nothing to do with religion.
Jim Ramsey rangers to a greater extent as encapsulated perfectly by the contrasting outlook of both managers at the end. Rangers FC ARE bigotry, and really always will be.
Everyone here commenting on the bigotry from their partisan perspectives, but the saddest realisation as a Scottish football fan is brought home at 5:24 when stein talks about how 2 top teams in one city are the envy of Europe...we'll never see that in Scotland again.
im a celtic fan, and not really bigoted, but the different attitudes displayed between the celtic and rangers chairmans are indicative of the difffering attitudes of the fans of both clubs. complete opposite ends of the political and social spectrum
Ah, in fact we don't vote for the same parties, do we? Come on... the Tories are NOTHING in Scotland... Rangers is the majority of Scottish support, so is Scotland a Tory stronghold? Stop making no sense. An ordinary Rangers Labour man.
Willie Waddell-the rangers manager at this time-is not sober at any point in this documentary. Contrast this with the great Jock Stein-concise , intelligent, insightful. Also absolutely superb social commentary by the legendary Jimmy Reid and Cliff Hanley. The last images tell all-Waddell, drunk, confused, unsure. No wonder that club died!
Stein was a teetotaller, he also had no religious bigoted view, he was happy for celtic boys club to be open to everyone, that helped jim torbett carry on regardless of whose future football career he was choosing to ruin. May god forgive him and stein. Scum of the earth.
@@erniemccracken2429 Not just that either. Partick Thistle and Queens Park were big clubs then in Glasgow. Then there were lots of smaller football venues and City Council football areas. Take them all into account and they might well have the capacity for nearly half of the city
Jimmy Reed was a great scot, as a Liverpudlian we have a real infinity with Glaswegians, partly, as Jimmy says himself, the working class were made up of Irish, both Catholic and Protestant. Liverpool and Everton share a similar history, Liverpool being formed by an Monaghan protestant and Everton by Dominican brothers...but the bond is in its people and that is clear when you go to both cities.
And he was a Rangers man. But we're still 'fascists', aye... Jimmy knew about Scotland and its people 10000 times more than most of the Celtic supporters nowadays. Living in mind ghettos is no help at all.

Hope there ain't too many feminists watching this. The way he talks about domestic violence in such a nonchalant fashion shows how far we have come from the 1970s.
yep, how can anyone be nostalgic for 1970's Glasgow? Neds is a good film depicting the dismal life chances of these people as well as the alcoholism and domestic abuse.
I would have enjoyed it if it wasn't for the ever so hard done to Cliff Hanley, talking out his hole. the film actually contradicted most of what he said eg. "Rangers are an anti-catholic club" then Rangers captain John Greig, Rangers manager Willie Waddell et al are in the CHAPEL! I mean did that guy personally hand Phil Mcglabsoithensgvfdhbsjasbcbcdbccz his pen and type writer? tims lap this shit up, it makes them feel that little bit downtrodden, the whole worlds against them attitude. I actually agree with what Willie Waddell said at the end. lets face it, since Rangers have been enjoying their catholic friendly era the quality has went right out the window!

these where the days when football was amence and you could piss up the side of the guys leg side beside you and if you dropped a can a lager the police picked it up for you lol

We cliff should get his facts right Celtic would never have a prod on the board and said big jock would never go any further than the youth team cause he was a prod fair doos to Celtic that was the way it was in the day but people like him who milked a wage from the auld firm should have got his facts right
He got further than the youth team did he not? Now has a statue outside and a stand named after him. Don't be obtuse. In this video it is plain to see even a blind man could see it. The complete difference in attitude and social outlook between Waddle and Stien.

8:59 I thought inbreeding only became the norm among Rangers fans since the 80s. I was definitely wrong.
14:37 Facts. To this day!
@16.46 the old codger made the sign of the cross 😂
Hope there ain't too many feminists watching this. The way he talks about domestic violence in such a nonchalant fashion shows how far we have come from the 1970s.
yep, how can anyone be nostalgic for 1970's Glasgow? Neds is a good film depicting the dismal life chances of these people as well as the alcoholism and domestic abuse.
I'm a fan of neither. Seems ridiculous.
Cliff Hanley didn't do irony did he? The bitterness and hatred oozing out of him. The acidic inflection in his voice is a dead giveaway.
Truth isn't bigotry or hatred.
I would have enjoyed it if it wasn't for the ever so hard done to Cliff Hanley, talking out his hole. the film actually contradicted most of what he said eg. "Rangers are an anti-catholic club" then Rangers captain John Greig, Rangers manager Willie Waddell et al are in the CHAPEL! I mean did that guy personally hand Phil Mcglabsoithensgvfdhbsjasbcbcdbccz his pen and type writer? tims lap this shit up, it makes them feel that little bit downtrodden, the whole worlds against them attitude.
I actually agree with what Willie Waddell said at the end.
lets face it, since Rangers have been enjoying their catholic friendly era the quality has went right out the window!
BigjockGnu Well considering your username I think any opinions you have may be considered a bit biased.. You let yourself and you're team down by stuff like that.. Grow up...
Check out Carlos tevez the rangers fan in the crowd at the beginning of this film.cityandrangerstillidie.

That's aged well 😂😂
these where the days when football was amence and you could piss up the side of the guys leg side beside you and if you dropped a can a lager the police picked it up for you lol
The late Cliff Hanley completely dismembered the delusions of hunnery here.
when the majority of the irish came here ireland was part of britain so they were no different to scottish people who moved to london or any other part of britain
oh and btw seeing Steve Birrell is the grammar police in this vid ......
ppl in glass houses and all that.......

Touche :)
Were was a? In the Dark Ages, mr twaddle🎉🎉🎉c'mon the hoops
To gerchamper bet you're glad summer is round the corner so it might just warm enough to crawl out of that cave of yours maybe wash yourself and that filthy string vest also catch up with current affairs . I've got a few old dandy and beano comics bring you up to speed. . Or then again maybe not
The potato crop didn't failed. English imperialism meant a shortfall for the native people to the point where it felt like a famine. The English, as in many parts of the globe, the instigators of human misery.
Your knowledge of history is pathetic. You will tell me next that the English were behind the Highland clearances. You prejudiced lying arsehole
the crop also failed, it was potato blight
@@willevans429yes, but none of the other crops failed. They were all shipped out to England as before.
Scottish football is tiresome.
@@bfc3057 yes, but the potato crop was the most important. No i dont agree, I live in Europe and for a long time, people know the Scottish contribution and the football is still considered exotic, people respect it.
btw, my dads side is Welsh, mothers is Irish, direct from the famine
Was cliff a dr who in a different life
34:32 De Valera was not a protestant
Cuban wog. Probably into voodoo.
@@clemfandango619😂😂😂😂
De Valera was a Roman Catholic... our first president, Dr. Douglas Hyde was a protestant, but not Dev!!
Rangers are more complex than Celtic. Something i suspect.
And look at them now. 😂😂😂
Look up The Chronicles Made In Toonheid very good by Ian Todd
It’s a shame Glasgow rangers died in 2012, all that history gone.
You better explain that to eufa because they know a bit more than you, mind you looking at you so does a 4 year old
Celtic died in 1994.
@@shaunblues1043 you better get in touch with eufa then and let them know, you look about 70 in your photo btw
We cliff should get his facts right Celtic would never have a prod on the board and said big jock would never go any further than the youth team cause he was a prod fair doos to Celtic that was the way it was in the day but people like him who milked a wage from the auld firm should have got his facts right
He got further than the youth team did he not? Now has a statue outside and a stand named after him. Don't be obtuse. In this video it is plain to see even a blind man could see it. The complete difference in attitude and social outlook between Waddle and Stien.
They give their wife a bashing about 😂😂😂😂
