Player Nominated | Alan Anderson |
Nominated By | Andy Anderson |
Where Do You Live | Fife |
Why nominated | Simply he's the reason I started supporting Hearts over 30 years ago. No relation, but the combination of the name & the presence he exerted on the pitch made him my hero. Donald Ford and Drew Busby were the glory boys, but Alan Anderson was my main man. |
Memorable Games | The biggest game of my memory was the 1975 League Cup quarter final replay at Dens Park. The reason is simple, as the first ever away mascot, I got to run out onto the pitch beside my hero with the number 5 on my back. I was bitterly disappointed when Jim Brown was made captain that night (sorry Jim) as it meant that I went down the tunnel with him, but as soon as I was out there I made straight for the big man. We got beat 3 - 2, but it didn't spoil the night. |
Other Comments | I still have the Hearts scarf that was bought from the Sports shop Alan set up when he retired from the game. Does anybody know what he's up to these days ? |
