		The failed stand-up show took place at the Royal Exchange to coincide with Thomson's performance as Willie Mossop in Hobson's Choice which attracted praise from the critics and was a sell-out despite an extension of the run.
		Thomson, who has fought a much-publicised battle with drink, had agreed to rescheduled the stand-up show after some of the audience at last month's performance claimed he mumbled, repeated jokes and used 10-year-old material.

		We would hope, however, he is remembered for his footballing skills rather than for being in the right place at the right time from a striker’s point of view; but at a time that left an opponent dead and Sammy with memories that haunted him for the rest of his life.
		The outcome of the meeting was that John Thomson’s parents completely absolved Sammy English from any blame at all and wished him and successful career; and, moreover, expressed their sympathy for the way they saw him suffering.
		In an interesting anecdote that shows the changing attitudes of football fans though the years, it was noted that fans of Motherwell’s near neighbours, Hamilton Academical, remained in their ground after beating Clyde for news of the respective scores of Rangers and Motherwell.

		Under new pressure from the emerging 'New Firm' of Aberdeen and Dundee United, they still clinched the title in 1981 and 1982, the League Cup in 1982 and the Scottish Cup in 1980, though their 1-0 victory in that game was overshadowed by the rioting between rival fans after the match.
