  1. Match preview is now up. Only Carswell, McGeever and Syvertsen missing.
  2. Fun fact. We have won more league games in our last 16 than Queen's Park.
  3. Future Sons manager Alex Wright in the middle row and in the front row Johnny McKenzie, later to play for Sons.
  4. I believe we were not the only team there. Pretty sure Montrose were there and possibly Inverness C.T., who also have had to bin their match on Sunday because of Covid and injuries.
  5. When SeasonTickets went on sale the club said, "And while restrictions remain enforced on crowds at football matches, you'll also be giving yourself priority access to our stadium if we have to limit the number of supporters."
  6. Isn't Roncone the ref that prompted Dick Campbell's hilarious pitch invasion a few years back at Somerset? An upgrade, but maybe not by much.
  7. The match preview hasn't appeared yet on the club's website, nor the match-streaming details. Is the game in some doubt?
  8. What funding do the owners currently provide?
  9. Before St John's time, there were rumours of match-fixing when B Division champions Motherwell in their last game of the season, played bottom of the table (and headed for C Division) Dumbarton at Fir Park on 10 April 1954. The match ended 6-6, Motherwell having led 6-4 at half-time. This was at a time when Dumbarton were having difficulty meeting wages, the players having been unpaid for a number of weeks. This was only resolved a couple of weeks later, immediately before Dumbarton's final league match, when the Supporters Society came up with much of the outstanding amount.
  10. I think at least one of these, perhaps Maley, is on amateur terms.
  11. We played Aberdeen last season in the last 32 live on BBC on a Saturday with a 12.15 kick off (which was our fourth game in a week and less than 39 hours after we had completed our game against Airdrie on the Thursday night).
  12. Sounds like another Scott Lambie masterclass.
  13. I think Willie Waddell left Killie after winning the league in '65, so it was maybe Walter McCrae you were thinking of?
  14. Think the year may be wrong, as there was only one Scottish Cup tie involving a Rangers in Februray 1967 and that was at Easter Road. I'm guessing the photo was taken in 1966?
  15. A couple more. No hint of yellow in that strip.
  16. Some colour footage of Boghead, possibly Sons v Albion Rovers on Wednesday 12 August 1959 in a League Cuo group game.
  17. Our site says you can purchase at their reception before the match.
  18. We'd put 8 past another Hibernian (Smithston) in the previous round. Just a shame we ended up losing to Hearts in the final!
  19. It's definitely Murdo's brother Ally. He'd already established himself as a first team player by then.
