23rd October is a date that raises the interest of every Thistle fan. That was the day in 1971 when Partick Thistle humbled Celtic (then undoubtedly one of the top teams in Europe) by four goals to one in the final of the Scottish League Cup.
The line-up on that day is etched into the memories of everyone who had the pleasure of being there, and is a fundamental part of the education of any self-respecting Jags fan!!
This year marks the 38th Anniversary of that memorable occasion and it makes for an opportune time for the team collectively to be entered in the Thistle Hall Of Fame.
You can make the 23rd October this year a memorable occasion by joining the JagsTrust at its' tables at the Hall Of Fame dinner which will be held at the Glasgow Thistle Hotel in Cambridge Street, Glasgow.
The evening will commence at 1900hrs (for 1930hrs) and will include a 4 course meal followed by the induction ceremony with the evening topped and tailed by dancing until 1 o'clock in the morning with the band "Grounds For Divorce". Dress code for the evening is "Lounge Suit"
The cost of joining the Trust tables will be £40 per person. This is cheaper than would be the case if you bought the tickets individually from the club - we can offer this lower cost by buying a table. At this point, we have committed to buying two tables - should there be sufficient interest we will buy more tables subject to availability.
If you'd like to attend, please contact David Stewart or Allan Heron with your details.
Payment can be made by Paypal to the JagsTrust account which is paypal@jagstrust.com. We are also happy to receive the payment in two instalments if that makes being able to attend the event easier for you. Please ensure that you mark all payments via Paypal as "Hall Of Fame Dinner". We will also be able to receive payment in cheques or in cash.
This should be an excellent evening and is a rare opportunity to see all of our heroes together again. We hope you can come along and join in the recognition of these giants in the history of Partick Thistle.
