  1. If it's deemed violent conduct, the ban will spill over into league games.
  2. Been there, seen it, done it. Your night tonight, pal. Enjoy.
  3. No complaints at the outcome. You can't turn up for 45 minutes and expect to win a cup final. Accies bossed the first half and defended for their lives in the second. Hope Accies fans enjoy their night.
  4. No we didn't. Rovers fans were asked which stand they wanted tickets for when we went for them.
  5. You'd be better getting the train to Grahamston (which is served by trains from both Edinburgh and Glasgow, but not on the fast Edinburgh - Glasgow line, if that makes sense).
  6. Sir Richard Staite. Knighted for services to education (rector of Beeslack High School, Penicuik) and sport (scoring for Raith Rovers in a Scottish Cup quarter-final).
  7. Come on now, you know fine well, TV licence or not, you'll be tuned into BBC Alibaba on Sunday afternoon cheering on the Accies as a Rovers win will mean we'll have won four and a half national trophies, further enhancing our status as Fife's most successful football club.
  8. Saturday 7th May 1988. Kilmarnock secure their First Division survival at the expense of East Fife and Dumbarton with a 1-0 win on the final day.
  9. If you watch the footage from the two Aberdeen v Rangers Scottish Cup Finals from the early 80s you can see the big difference in the North terrace over the 12 month period.
  10. There's usually a decent amount of parking at the college, which is on the right as you head from the ground towards the town centre. I'd imagine the stadium car park will be open, but I heard it's something like £4 a pop.
  11. I was standing almost in line with Brewster as he shaped up to take it and have never been more convinced that a free kick was ending up in the net.
  12. I'm pretty sure it was demolished around 1982. I'm not 100% certain, but I think the last time it had punters in it was the Scotland v England game that year.
  13. How the hell did you manage that? You could watch the game from the queue for the pie huts back then. As for the bogs at the Links End, that was a case of in and out as quick as humanly possible. They blew the bookies' toilets at the start of the original Trainspotting out the water.
  14. I think we won 6-0 at Cliftonhill in a midweek game during the Bobby Wilson era. Keith Wright and Paul Smith bagged a hat-trick each.
  15. British football's first Sports Scientist coaching his protégé.
  16. Inside tomorrow's programme: Interviews with Robbie Thomson and tomorrow's FPA guest Todd Lumsden, Reports and photos from the Ayr, Partick and Rangers games, A piece on International Women's Day, From the San Starko to Hayes Lane, Report and photos from the 92/93 anniversary dinner last Saturday, Plus the usual: Manager's Notes, Mascots feature, On this day, Memory Match from our first ever visit to the Balmoral, Quiz, Stats and Team Lines. Only £3 in and around the ground.
  17. The Selkirk team at Annfield, just before their 20-0 defeat in 1984
  18. I'm not 100% sure, but it could well be. I was guessing the opposition was either Brazil or Sweden which ties in with the 1977 tour.
