The same day Dundee were at Highbury, Dundee United beat Manchester City 2-1 at Tannadice before

1962 both out of the Cup so Arsenal and Dundee met home and away. 17 Feb 2-2 at Highbury and at Dens Park on 10 Mar 1-0 to the Arsenal. 16,341 at Highbury and 10,000 at Dens. Not sure if a programme was issued for the game at Dens. Can’t find anything about the game at Dens other than the Arsenal lineup. http://www.thearsenalhistory.com/stat/aftlu.htm

Off we go on another season. Monday 7/10 The 4-3-3 formation let down once again by the midfield. https://quizoftheday.co.uk/2595

Scissor Sisters - Invisible Light

That doesn’t matter with QD, just look at how this week’s wooden spoon ended up.

If 2 or more have the same points then whoever has more of the highest number in their score then next highest etc. wins. In your case 3 of you ended up on 37 points but @Snobot with 1 x 9 + 2 x 8 is better than @mathematics 1 x 9 + 1 x 8 and both better than your score. Even though you had 3 x 8 you didn’t score a 9. Although @Snobot had the lowest daily score of the 3 of you (5) his higher scores beat you both. That’s Quiz Difference for you.

Doubt it will happen again but it did 62 years ago today.

Thanks for informative reply. Is it possible the Balgay Park ground was on what is now Victoria Park?

Rachel Sweet - Pin A Medal On Mary

On this day in 1910 Arbroath played a friendly against Dundee & District Junior League side Forthill Athletic. What intrigued me about the game was the venue, Station Park, Barnhill as I can’t recall ever reading about the existence of that ground. Had always assumed they must have played somewhere in Forthill. I knew a Dundee to Forfar railway had passed through Barnhill. Found a picture of Forthill Athletic on the SJFA web site. It’s from a few years earlier than the Arbroath game but a Charles Stewart is listed in the line-up for the Arbroath game and the photo has a C.Stewart (captain), front row holding the ball. No idea if it’s the same player. Forthill Athletic had a player, John Slavin, who signed for Raith Rovers in 1922 and was transferred to Hearts in 1925. He was a centre forward who played 29 League games and 2 Scottish Cup games over 2 seasons, scoring 7 goals in the League. He also had loan spells with Forfar Athletic and Arbroath He moved to the USA in 1927 and was playing until at least 1945 according to his London Hearts page. The John Slavin picture is from Arbroath Archive. https://www.arbroatharchive.co.uk/matchdetails.php?id=3042 https://www.londonhearts.com/scores/newplayers/h00990.html
