Mustafa_sheet Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Seeing Celtic Park as having red in the Main Stand is mind blowing to me. Had to reverse search it to figure that one out. If memory serves me correct I'm sure the lower tier seats were orange, not red and the upper tier seats were green! This colour choice was Celtic's attempt to bridge the religious divide in Glasgow!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gannonball Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Did someone not end up down one of those in the past few years? Aye nearly 5 years ago, they were called Rangers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A nice ground, shame only two sides are used for supporters. Ochilview is an absolutely smashing ground. Must admit I'd never seen the old pictures of it, didn't realise that the current main stand was as recent as that! The only time I went was when my mates' Sunday league team got to their league cup final against a team from Falkirk. We tried to see if we could get it played at Rugby Park but were given a swift KB by Killie so they had it here. Great time pre-match in the Ochilview Bar - rather than have to traipse out round the street to get into the stand they just opened the fire door for us and we were on the terrace, pints in hand! No stewards, just fifty or so daft folk shouting the team on. Got beat 3-1 but the noise we managed to make in the cowshed was brilliant. We gave the opposition keeper pelters for the whole of the second half, shouting all manner of nonsense at him ranging from "you're just a shíte Alan Main" to "yer dug's got tits". A great day at a smashing ground, I'd love if Killie got drawn away to Stenny in the cup (or if the Shire got to the right round of the Scottish cup, that would also do). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 What's with the Ochilview love? It's utter shite. A good terrace, a wee shitey lego stand and then 2 sides that look like the side of a sports centre pitch with loads of shite behind them. Horrible wee ground. If I lived in Stenhousemuir, Methil, Cowdenbeath, Berwick I don't think I could bring myself to go along every 2 weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Off topic, but do any shinty clubs share stadia with football (or rugby) teams, or do they try to keep out any other sports like the Irish sports try to? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they do, it's only amateur sides that nobody has heard of. Besides, a shinty pitch is pretty huge. They'd need to put removable goals in for the fitba. But mainly, as you suggest, in the shinty heartlands it wouldn't be tolerated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScarf Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Inverness City and Inverness Shinty Club both have pitches on Bught Park. That's probably as close as you'll get to a football-shinty ground share. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
