Hope springs eternal. One game that springs to mind was the 3-0 game where we won to avoid automatic relegation. Was a good day out that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airdrie's form since 2004* at Palmerston:- P13 W:1 D:4 L:8 The win was that game I was talking about. It was 28/4/07. Hopefully Palmerston is as big a jinx for you as it is Ayr and we can get a draw at the very least * It only goes to 2004 on this website. Though I've no item if we played you in the first two years so I imagine it's pretty accurate. https://livescores.biz/h2h/airdrieonians-vs-queen-of-the-south/ Queen of the South is one of my favourite away days, I must have drank a lot on the previous trips to never notice how bad our record was down there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis Blue Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 10 hours ago, Chapelhall chap said: I was at that 1-7 game and pretty sure it was an early game for Sandy Clarke so late 70s. Strange how I can't remember what I did yesterday yet I can remember some things from decades ago quite clearly. I recall Airdrie taking the lead and Queens equalising at 1-1 around 30 mins in. Then the roof fell in ... everything Airdrie hit flew into the net and it was 1-5 by half time I think. The second half was about damage limitation and trying to keep it in single figures. To be fair that was a decent Airdrie side - think Derek Whiteford was the main man back then (captain?), not sure if the likes of Jarvie and Jonquin were in that side though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh for the days of just two games rather than four. Aye, Broomfield was a cracking old-time stadium. Must have been a great atmosphere when full. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 I'm positive that was a lovely summers day as well, cracking atmosphere as well tbf.Yes it was. I'd love to know when the 3rd goal went in. I left very early in that game. I want to say it was right after the 3rd goal all the while shouting at McCall for bending over [emoji38] FWIW I probably wouldn't care nowadays if that happened. I must have been more excitable back then, or had more integrity... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what Scally's doing at centre back (and Aitken was making a first start after long term injury) but what a team that was looking back. There's about 9 of that starting line up (and O'Neill and Burns on the bench) who would rightly be part of any conversation of our greatest team in the last two or three decades. Nine of them played in the Scottish Cup final 12 months later. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a very big away support. Our average home attendance that season was around 1,750 I think. By comparison only about 300 higher than the Clyde game.

Diamond Oracle Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 15 hours ago, Skyline Drifter said: No, no stream available. Didn't stream the League Cup games even when it was allowed domestically. Edit - As a matter of interest where on our website does it suggest we do? I had a look but couldn't see anything other than a link to QoStv which if clicked leads to a page saying we won't be streaming this season. That’s a shame as I won’t be able to make the game. it was the QoSTV Live section: https://www.qosfc.com/qostv 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Looking like it's going to be a decent day on Saturday. Any suggestions for a pub with outdoor seating/beer garden? Preferably near White Sands Bus Stance.Coach and Horses and/or New Bazaar are both on the Sands and normally have outdoor seating. The Bazaar is generally a "Queens Bar" so I'd imagine there will be a few fans in for a drink as well. There is a pub at the bottom of the Vennel called Riverside Tap which has a decent beer garden. It is pricey though but if you like your craft beer it's probably worth a drink or two. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't look there, I looked at QoStv Live which is a different link and makes it clear it's no longer active. The QoStv one clearly hasn't been updated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
