I remember there was a skydiver landing on the pitch before the game for some reason. That was the day I fell in love with the Rovers. More of the same this season please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The venue Starks Park, the opposition East Fife. The Rovers line-up that day was :- 1) McAlpine 2) McStay 3) McLeod 4) Fraser 5) Brash 6) Sweeny 7) Simpson 8 Harris 9) Marshall 10) Dalziel 11) Wright Subs :- Lloyd and Harrow both came on in the 78th minute for Simpson and Marshall. The score was 7-1 for the Rovers and the scorers were Dalziel (3), Harris (2), Brash and McStay. Don't know who scored for East Fife not that it really matters. A wonderful mid-week game under the floodlights. Another thing to note about that season was that was the last season that East Fife beat the Rovers in a league or cup game. 5) I really enjoyed that day can't quite out my finger on why though Edited June 10, 2017 by mr mince 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For one foolish moment I thought maybe the discussion would be around another new signing, but no, I should've realised it would be more hilarious banter from an East Fife fan and Super Hans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're unbeaten in cup finals against Falkirk - so there. Take the hook out your mouth, canny believe someone would even go out there way and check on wiki. The main point I was making that you chose to ignore was the fact East Fife would bite your hand off to beat Rangers in a cup final yet one of your own tried to be little the tournament, So East Fife not bothering about the iron bru cup? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 In pure honesty, the absolute seethe it caused the zombies was 100% worth it and if somehow it ever happened again, I'd be crying with laughter all over again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 In pure honesty, the absolute seethe it caused the zombies was 100% worth it and if somehow it ever happened again, I'd be crying with laughter all over again. By far and away the funniest post game scenes I've seen. Utterly awful game but we did the job. Their fans were flooding out and it was brilliant to see Rovers fans I've sat with and spoken to over the last year celebrating. Just complete joy walking back along London Road. Definitely one of the most celebrated goals I've had. But of course, we're all in denial and wish we had won cups back in the 50s, and we'd never seen these in the flesh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Me and another Pars fan were in Glasgow that weekend and watched it in the pub just outside Queen Street. There was a blue nose in there who literally got redder and angrier the more it went on and when you scored the winner... And we cheered... He looked like he was about to explode [emoji1] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked like he was about to explode Hibs late winner against Rangers in the cup final aside certainly the most I've celebrated a goal in a game that didn't involve the Pars.

The stat is we've beaten both halves of the Old Firm in cup finals. (Even though they're not really Rangers!) I've never known a game to unite fans of all clubs as much as that final did! And to even have Pars fans on here today admitting to cheering the goal, well all faith in humanity is restored! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
east fife for life Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 East Fife remind me of Morton fans constantly harking back to 1922 when they won the Scottish cup. Ok you won a few cups. In 19 canteen. You've been shit ever since. Deal with it. But we own our own ground so all is good. ????[emoji23] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
