Nice. Did we get beat in the Clydebank game? Maybe two nil. I remember being at one there about that time. The home fans spent the whole match slagging Sumo. I think he played for them maybe at some point.
Got beat 3-1, am sure it was Gus Malone that scored for us. They did give Sumo it tight, think he played a handful of games for them the previous season.

Was huving a rumage through some old stuff earlier and came across a some old Cowden stuff.
Cowden 91-92 team pic from a special Central Fife Times edition from 2003
Got a photo taken of me sitting in the drivers seat of the striking team bus away at Berwick in 91, lost it many years ago though.My season ticket book from 2000-01 season, brilliant season following the team home and away.
And the match programme looking a bit tatty v Clydebank in the cup from 1992..

That was a good one. Elgin player put it on a plate for him. That was our fifth win out of five against Elgin that season I remember for some reason.
Yep, 3-1, 3-2, 2-0,1-0 in the league and 3-0 in the league cup.

Toorie scoring the winner to beat Elgin 1-0 in 2000/01 season, on a Sunday I think, a right few of us were already out the gates when he scored.

Graeme Brown scoring in the last minute against East Fife in 2001. Came on as a late sub to net the winner.
Remember that, the noise we made when it went it, we all clapped the players off the pitch at the end which seemed to go on forever, lol.

Aye probably the only time ever in the history of football Celtic wore green socks were against St mirren
On 07/08/2020 at 20:28, Flybhoy said:They regularly did then as St Mirren, like Celtic, had a lot of white in their kit, both Morton and Kilmarnock in that era had blue and white hoops so we may have wore the green socks in those home fixtures but unsure if either were in the Premier league that year the picture is from.
Was watching on YouTube the 1989/1990 Scottish league goals. Celtic wore green socks with their home kit against Dunfermline at East end Park in 1989. Don't know if they did this all the time against Dunfermline prior to this match.

Was never going to surpass last seasons belter. Same blue body/white sleeves as the 2010/11 shirt. Your average looking kit, but why oh why have we reverted back to red socks? Should have been white or blue. Will still get shirt to help the club. Can we please have a yellow/green away shirt, blue shorts and white socks

From Accies Twitter. Unusual Aberdeen strip. Any idea what the colours are?
Edit: Accies defence noticeable by their absence here.
Thie following is from an article on the Aberdeen website titled, the history of the blue kit. Goes on to say it possibly could be links with Chelsea in the 50's.
By the mid 60’s it had been altered to be a blue shirt with white and red stripes.

The first game a 3-3 draw with the Bankies, I honestly thought we were going to do no bad, then think it was the Wednesday night following we got roasted of the pars, then it was pretty much humping after humping from then on in with a win over Ayr being the highlight till we got a shock win at eep. Cup run should have went a further round if we scored the penalty that the bottler of a ref never gave vs Hibs in the cup. Another highlight was big Eric punching the niggling George McCluskey.

No mention of Ray Allan ?
He just left when I started following Cowden, so just going with the keepers I have seen play.

Damn good keepers, John Martin, Craig Gordon, Davie Hay, Thomas Flynn & David McGurn.
Ok keepers, Buzz Lamont, Stevie O'Hanlon, Alan Combe, Andy Carlin, Kyle Allison & Youseff Bejaoui.
In between ok/bad, Stevie "Away" Hutchison, and Ross Godfrey.
Useless and murder, Stephan Gollasch, Stephen Orr & Michael Andrews.

Is that a bit of New Order over the closing credits?
Not sure. Pretty sure it was used as the main theme tune for Sportscence between 90-92, so dont know it was a mainstream chart song or just a bbc in house tune made for the show.

Some memorable games from season 2000/01. Toorie putting the ball in with his nose (a joke that we had at the poty dance that night after the game, lol) Quality ball in from Muzza as well I missed the 7-5 game, but the 3-0 play off game, what a team that day, Gareth Wardlaw covered every blade of grass, absolute tank.

Seen this picture on a Celtic Facebook page, does anyone have any information on this match?
Wearing the Queens Park away strip from, around 2000 I think are former Scottish Labour MP and leader Jim Murphy, Kenny Dalglish, Danny McGrain, actor and writer Tony Roper and Derek Johnstone.
It was the opening of Hampdens festival of football, not sure of year, but as you say looks like late nineties early 2000s. Found another pic of Tommy Burns leading out his team in the away kit along with a queen's Park side in the home kit.

Just came across a small collection of Cowden player shirts from the 95/96 season on ebay. Would fancy the No.4 long sleeved shirt coz i have the short sleeve no.4 player shirt from that season. Steep asking price thought, just short of £70 quid on most, £130 for the no.19 for some reason.

Best
Winning promotion to the first division with a 3-0 win at the glebe, even though we were preparing for another season in the 3rd division at the start of the season.
Winning the second division championship, me and the old man was at every game, right from the first pre season friendly to the last kick of the season. When that second goal went in at home against Forfar, the realisation that we were champions was emotional for both of us.
Pumping the Townies in their backyard, they had us beat before the game had started, but we came, we saw, we conquered. Still a big thanks to Bob McHugh for a grand day out.
Worst
The Hearts and CowTENbeath debacle.
The back to back relegations, and one game away from dropping out of league football twice.
A great first half of the decade, but a low low second.

Can remember when Levein sent Kenneth out on loan to Cowden, Levein felt Kenneth thought he was Billy big time and had made it in the game, he came to Cowden to find out that you need to put in hard work and 100% commitment.

Are they on sale at Central from tomorrow morning or just before game? Not making it to the game so trying to see if it would be better ordering it from FN. Cheers.

Yep, looks like it's the final straw for Coxy, walked away from the ground during the game tonight as his mental health was made a joke of again by a certain Stenny player. He is saying on facebook he is finniished with Football. Ref wasn't interested when David brought it to his attention. SFA and Stenny need to take serious action.
