Trivia
- Billed as the Jungle’s last stand!
- A very surreal day!
- To celebrate the end of the Jungle terracing, a fancy dress competition was held. The winner was a man dressed as a parrot holding up a sign saying “Seats in the Jungle, I’m sick as a parrot!”! The ‘parrot’ then became the club’s new mascot.
- Stupidly, much loathed director Michael Kelly was in disguise in the Jungle in a tiger suit. If found out, there could have been some serious trouble.
- A giant inflatable pink elephant was placed behind the goals (as put there by the club) for some reason (maybe for colour or atmosphere but I can’t fathom it). Don’t ask.
- Lisbon Lions and other greats paraded in front of the Jungle.
- Attendance would have been far higher but there was a boycott on by many fans trying to oust the board.
- A certificate was given to every fan who entered the Jungle for one final occasion.
Review
A sad day as the hardcore of the support bid farwell to the Jungle, the home of the most raucous and visible of the support for generations.
Fitting that two favourites (McStay & McAvennie) from the Centenary season were the ones to score the goals, but it was also a reminder of just how far away from those good times the club currently were at this point.
Attendance would have been far higher but there was a boycott on by many fans trying to oust the board.
A fine way to wave goodbye to the terraces by those who were there, but next season it was to be still there but with seating. Unnecessary it was to be following the takeover to come and the move to Hampden.
