CIS Cup Final Date


Recommended Posts

 

It was a Sunday when we beat Hibs 3-0 in October, 1985.  As I remember going as a kid and missing the final episode of Stookie on STV on the Sunday.  If memory serves me right it was also the day after the actor who played Wayne in Auf Wiedhersen Pet (Gary Holden I think) was found dead.

" Holton was found dead by his girlfriend Janet Mclllewan in his bed on 25 October 1985. He had died from an overdose of alcohol and morphine, as well as traces of diazepam and cannabis. Pathologist Dr Rufus Crompton said during his coronery at Hornesy, North London, that he would have been drinking less than half-an-hour before his death, and that the morphine would have made him unconscious within a matter of minutes "
