Also Queens 6-5 Morton in 2002. I think Queens also drew 6-6 with Falkirk at some point in the 1950s, although obviously that's not what was originally asked. Wouldn't be surprised if there was 7-6 somewhere years ago.

They also lost to Hearts 5-6 in 1940, http://www.fitbastat...php?gameid=1745

and a couple months later lost 5-6 to Falkirk in 1940 too: http://www.fitbastat...php?gameid=1762

Celtic beat Leith Athletic 6-5 in 1895, http://www.fitbastat....php?gameid=132


Hibs and Motherwell drew 6-6 not so long ago, http://www.fitbastat...php?gameid=4998

Statto.com wasn't as helpful as I'd hoped.


There have been 5 instances of 13 goals in a top flight senior game in Scotland:




Clyde 10 Vale of Leven 3, 15 August 1891
Clyde 3 Heart of Midlothian 10, 3 October 1891
St Mirren 10 Dundee 3, 17 February 1894
Heart of Midlothian 10 Queen's Park 3, 24 August 1912
Motherwell 8 Queen of the South 5, 13 August 1938.

(so no 7-6s or worse there) but the record aggregate for the second tier is 16 (Airdrieonians 15 Dundee Wanderers 1, 1 December 1894 so there may be a little scope for a 7-6 or even an 8-7, but sounds unlikely)

[King Kong Bundy]

We lost 6-5 to Celtic in 1929 in the Merchant's Charity Cup.

[AyrshireTon]

Done a little trawling through our results and 5 appears to be the max also.

22/10/27 - Morton 5-6 Clydebank (Division 2) - the first Clydebank, remember.
13/8/38 - East Fife 6-5 Morton (Division 2 - the next two are in the SAME season)
4/2/39 - King's Park 6-5 Morton
11/3/39 - Forfar 6-5 Morton
17/8/57 - Morton 7-5 Stenhousemuir (League Cup Section 7)
5/10/57 - Morton 5-6 Brechin City (Division 2)
10/3/62 - Morton 6-5 Alloa Athletic (Division 2)
26/2/02 - QoS 6-5 Morton (yup, Division 2 again)

Lasting memory of the last of those is of many folk on mobiles at half-time trying to convince those on the other end that a scoreline of 6-3 wasn't a wind-up.

IIRC, 16/12/68
Rangers 10 - 2 Raith Rovers, put me off watching Dr. Who that night.

28/11/34 Division 2 Dundee United 9-6 Edinburgh City

Another with 5 conceded was Dundee United 5-6 Hearts 1967/8 SC

As a total aside, I remember Jim Herriott of Birmingham City playing for Scotland in the late 1960s at a time when he had let in more goals than any other keeper in British football.

Pretty sure we lost 7-5 to Falkirk early 70s.
Edit to add. It was 1969
We were 3-0 nil up, 7-3 down and it finished 7-5.

Not quite as good, but I think we also beat Stirling 7-4 in a B&Q (Challenge) Cup tie in the early 90s. That might have been after extra time though.

We won 7-4 at Montrose after extra time in B&Q cup. In true QOS fashion we lost 7-1 at Brechin in the league a few days later.

Ah Montrose, was it? I should really start checking these things.

We did indeed win 7-4 at Montrose after extra time in the Challenge Cup. It was in October 1991 and was 3-3 in 90 minutes. I was away on a course with work at the time in Edinburgh for three weeks and caught a train up from there. Last train back was 9:35 and I had to leave the game at half time in extra time to make it. This was in the days before mobile phones and internet and there weren't nightly sports programmes on radio either. We'd been 6-4 up when I left but goals were flying in from everywhere and I hadn't a clue whether we'd held on or not for several hours.

We had knocked Stirling out the week before at Palmerston on penalties after a 3-3 draw (I think it was 2-2 at 90 minutes). I didn't make it to that one as I'd no means of getting back to Edinburgh for 9am the next day if I'd gone down to it. It was the last first team game I missed in about three years or something from that point on.

The goalkeepers in the Motherwell 5 Aberdeen 6 game were none other than Andy Goram and Jim Leighton

By this time however, Goram had long since stopped attempting to make saves.

Two years later, we signed him.
