There was a load of trouble at Fir Park in the quarter final too. I was there too and indeed lots of trouble under the roof. The thing is that everyone knew that there was going to be trouble, and it was accepted back then. Fantastic atmosphere that day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently there was a fair bit of fisticuffs and bottle throwing but then it was the 1970s when such things weren't seen as the end of civilisation The official attendance was 25,812. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad was at Anfield that night, said we outnumbered the Wales support five to one. Any older posters know why the Welsh FA switched what was there home tie? My old man couldn't get a ticket in the Scotland end, so wrote to the Welsh FA and got him and a couple of mates tickets. Said it was absolutely rammed with Scots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A great team goal and fabulous cross from Martin Buchan, who also played in the 1970 semi-final mentioned above. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Craig Faulconbridge equalises for the Pars against Celtic at East End Park. The ground was rammed, mainly with Celtic fans, because had they won this game they would have won the league. Amusingly they did not win, sending thousands of them home in a rage, and the Pars fans present home very happy. Many Celtic fans were raging that we didn't let them win and rolled out the old 'Hunfermline' stuff. Wanks. This game was live on TV, which is where I saw it, in Glasgow, because my stupid parents dragged me through to an uncle's birthday party. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdTheDuck Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) Another pre 1903 Aberdeen photo The caption just says Aberdeen v Victoria United 1895 but I'm presuming this is Aberdeen's Chanonry ground, which is now the Cruickshank botanical gardens in the grounds of Aberdeen University's Kings College campus just off St Machar Drive ETA my understanding is that goal nets were introduced in 1891 but there's clearly none here, which makes me wonder if this photo is older than the caption says?
