HoBNob Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Why's Jim Craig wearing his shorts inside out? The image has been flipped or something, Stein will be standing outside the main stand and that's the present day Norrie end behind him so the whole photo is a bit back to front 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Watson Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) Athletics being ran at Cappielow in 1893. Not exactly sure where in the ground this is but I'll take a guess at the Cowshed/Wee Dublin End corner.

That would be fucking atrocious. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WILLIEA Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 2 hours ago, Silverton End said: Yeah. North of the town centre, Miller Street, just off Round Riding Road. A very residential area. As I recall you got off the train then had to walk through a wee park. A quaint ground that we didn't do well at! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, you'd cut across Dumbarton Common & up to Boghead, away Supporters' coaches would usually park around it on matchday, local Amateur sides use 'the Common' for their home games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You dreamt it. Barr Construction never did anything at Palmerston. The currently named Rosefield Salvage Stand was built by Robison & Davidson in the early 90's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought that the cowshed at cappielow was much bigger than the terrace behind the goal at palmerston. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
