Austinho Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 (edited) Love the wee clock face at Palmerston Park. Made as part of an advert I believe... 'Time to visit The Hole I' The Wa' Inn'. Sadly the stand (which incidentally is the largest remaining covered terrace in Scotland) is now called The Oakbank Services Terrace and therefore the Hole in the Wa' sign has been replaced with corporate dross. The clock still remains though. Edited April 3, 2018 by Austinho 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sobering to reflect all the exuberant youths in this picture are now retired or just about retirement Most of them if they live in Scotland are eligible for free bus travel all across Scotland courtesy of the Scottish Goverment. And of course we won't mention the fly digs a few of them had that day at Celtic players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flybhoy Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 The state of the art modern main stand at Somerset Park, Ayr United, complete with ground breaking 'panned in window' style of air conditioning. And the entrance to the now sadly gone Firs Park, East Stirlingshire, those who have never been wont be aware this was the only entrance to the now mothballed stadium, at the end of the Victoria Road cul-de-sac, meaning players, directors, officials, press etc had to walk right round the terracing to the stand housing the changing rooms and boardroom etc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it might not be a great idea 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
