October 3, 201015 yr The great comedian was a St Mirren Fan. It says so in the Sunday Mail page 38. He's sung club songs for teams such as Hearts and Dundee. He should do one for us. If he's still alive that is, I have no real idea how old he is.
October 3, 201015 yr He's sung club songs for teams such as Hearts and Dundee. He should do one for us. If he's still alive that is, I have no real idea how old he is. Sang club songs for both Embra and Dungdee Clubs Who sang our dreadful effort in the 70s Go Saints or something like that?
October 3, 201015 yr The great comedian was a St Mirren Fan. It says so in the Sunday Mail page 38. I saw him in the India Tyres Social club 30 years ago and he never mentioned an allegiance to the buds !
October 3, 201015 yr He died in the mid 80's I think. Disappointing that he never got the recognition he deserved. His funniness lasted a lifetime unlike that shitehoose Billy Connolly. Hector had real tragedy in his life with the random murder of his son by some dafty scumbag. Whereas that c*ck connolly invented his own imaginary tragedy through dodgy regression sessions with celebrity therapist Pamela Stevenson in a dire but successful attempt to sell shite self-help / overcoming life's tragedies nonsense. Hector was indeed a comedy legend and far more important than Billy "windswept @rsehole" Connolly.
October 3, 201015 yr Author My mate had the legendary Live at Venture Linwood Lp I played Pool, live in The Venture, in the 80's.
October 3, 201015 yr Hectors greatest hits............................ The Saints get a wee mention in the Dundee song.
October 3, 201015 yr http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Owx_sfSKWDw They don't write them like that anymore.
October 3, 201015 yr Author http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Owx_sfSKWDw They don't write them like that anymore. Brilliant !!!! : I mind in the late 70's on our Supporters Bus ( Chivas ) the Saints Supporting Bus Driver, Jocky was his name, always played Hector Nicol tapes on the way to most away games.
October 4, 201015 yr Brilliant !!!! : I mind in the late 70's on our Supporters Bus ( Chivas ) the Saints Supporting Bus Driver, Jocky was his name, always played Hector Nicol tapes on the way to most away games. Jocky looks like Hector Nicol.I remember Jocky not giving the ball back at Cappielow as full time was approaching and we were winning.It was new years day and he was driving our bus that day and i remember thinking oor drivers feckin nuts.He has become a good friend of mine over the years and i very quickly realised he is truly bonkers.His brother in law John Muir has just arrived from Canada and is also Saints daft.He will be at the Hamilton game so heres hoping he can bring us some luck.He is a member on Black and White and reads the forums so welcome home John and Linda.Have a great holiday.
October 4, 201015 yr Was working in the elbow room in the 80s and Hector done the cabaret, Tee-total, only thing he had was a pot of tea, and when he went on stage he looked more pished than the punters, a true legend of Scottish comedy

October 4, 201015 yr Met the great man when I did a support slot at the Friershall gig. Did not recognize him earlier that day as he looked completely different from what he does when on stage. The stage is where this man came alive. Also did not know he was a St Mirren fan Edited October 4, 201015 yr by Lochwinnoch Saint
October 4, 201015 yr Nothing beats Rikki Fulton/Francie & Josie in my book. Got there last ever show on DVD pure class, will we ever see comics of that class in Scotland, what have we got now that privk Frankie Boyle. cant stand that twat
October 4, 201015 yr Frankie Boyle is f**kin brilliant. Stewart Lee, George Carlin and the late great Bill Hicks are my favourites though - in no particular order.
October 4, 201015 yr Frankie Boyle is f**kin brilliant. Stewart Lee, George Carlin and the late great Bill Hicks are my favourites though - in no particular order. He most certainly is ! Used to love Mock the Week to see the other"comedians" wincing at some of his gags. Particularly that wee prick Andy Whatshisname !
