Have to say I don't remember the game he's talking about - six goals in the second half? Must have missed that game as I'm sure that would stick in my memory! I can mind it Raith beat Stenny 9-2 the week before. Wasn't at either just remember the scores in successive weeks and the swing in fortunes for Rovers. Sure it was Thistle's record win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrooge1928 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Douglas Lindsay recalls the Meadowbank Thistle 6-0 Raith Rovers match in another blog 4 years later on after the original one he wrote about the Meadowbank Reunion. You can never write too much about it or repeat it often enough. http://www.douglaslindsay.com/blog.asp?blogid=5627 Good article. I do remember Raith missing some chances in the second half, while Thistle could do no wrong - don't think I would agree with 10-10, but 4-2 Thistle would have been fair enough. Meadowbank never beat Stenny 6-0 - the best score was 6-1. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a cracker. Son of Blobby looks hands free. Nice balancing act on the bar. Maybe next time. In Issue Six.

You can collect your free Son of Blobby when we come up on Guy Fawkes day v Montrose. Well done again for winning the Spot the Balls Up Competition. PS. You are a bit of a baw bag for taking Son of Blobby away from his spiritual home at the concrete lavvy pan. However, luckily Mr Blobby still has his two younger brothers for company.

bullyweehutch Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Probably heading through on the train in a couple weeks (or whenever our game is there) for my first visit to medowbank (god knows how many for my old Man) so where's the best place to get the train to when going to medowbank? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edinburgh Waverley. There basically isn't any suburban rail... get off there then take a bus - or walk - past Register House, down Leith Street or Regent Road and along London Road. Same way you'd go to Hibs, except you head east (right in this photo) instead of north (straight on in this photo) when you reach the big crossroads here: Edited September 30, 2016 by HibeeJibee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
