That's right, it's my own pic. Think the bulk of the crowd were along the side but can't remember if there was segregation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mantis Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 A pretty awful day at Love Street, Feb 1997. A bit like today's weather in fact. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I really remember of the game is that it was entirely forgettable. Roberto Baggio had his ribs broken late on by, I think, Maurice Malpas and he did a fair bit a whining afterwards, wheeling out stereotypes about how they had been expecting to get booted off the park by us, etc. Mamma Mia. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was also at Brockville a few months later when Falkirk beat Hearts 6-0 and aforementioned Alan McLaren was absolutely destroyed by Big Crawford Baptie who scored 2 goals. Aye, it’s a funny old game. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 In what was by no way a publicity stunt () whatsoever a 40 something Russell Latapy makes his only appearance for Edinburgh City against Irvine Meadow in the Scottish Cup. I think he disrupted the team as City might have had a chance to beat Medda but they lost and missed out on a lucrative trip to Easter Road in the next round. On the other hand a load of nostalgic Hibees turned up to the game to see Latapy play leading to a 4 figure gate which put a smile on the City treasurer's coupon. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Programme from the Dons v Stirling Albion match from 1959/60. Going into the match the teams were 16th and 17th in the First Division respectively, with the Dons on 9 points and Albion on 8. Arbroath were bottom with 5. The Red Lichties were to gain a point at Pittodrie the following week in a 0-0 draw. Stirling's train broke down, and the Dons played a 5 a side game until the match eventually kicked off at 4,10pm. Aberdeen were coming into this on the back of a 5-1 defeat at Starks Park, and Albion on a 3-1 loss at Easter Road, after drawing 2-2 with Celtic the previous week at Annfield. Stirling scored first, but the Dons went on to win 3-1. Come the end of the season Albion finished in 17th with 22 points, the Dons scrambled to 15th on 28 points after winning their last 4 matches, including a 2-0 win at Annfield, Stirling lost their last 4 games. Their 5th last match was a 1-1 draw at Parkhead. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee Hibernian Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 (edited) That's Scottish Internationalist and ex Albion, Celtic, Hearts, St Johnstone etc John Colquhoun's dad, also John Colquhoun, number 7 for Stirling. Yet another John Colquhoun played briefly for Stirling Albion in the early 90s, who may have been a cousin, prior to the Internationalist Colquhoun, now a football agent, returning to finish his career, this time for Albion at Forthbank, having left the club from Annfield.
