RUSTY1111 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I would have thought that the cowshed at cappielow was much bigger than the terrace behind the goal at palmerston. It's the largest area of covered terracing in Scotland with a capacity of 3,345. The East Stand has 2,192 seats and the main stand has 1,182 plus standing terraces front and left. Terregles Street terracing obtained a safety certificate just over two years ago for 1,968. Full capacity is now 8,690 with 3,377 seats. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think its roughly Main stand 1300 seats Sinclar st 1800 Dublin end 3750 bench seats Cowshed 4750 of which 700 odd seats Leaves standing for just over 4000 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sergie's no1 fan Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Love Street http://www.britainfromabove.org.uk/image/spw019488 source for this pic says it was taken in 1927. Love St before it went all seated. Can't have old photos and not include a picture with Fergie in it so here he is with a shit load of trophies and superb players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it's actually the largest terraced "end" in Scotland. I would guess the Cowshed is probably bigger, though it is partially seated now isn't it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have been early to mid 70's I would think. Is that not the Jerry Kerr stand now? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Thompson stand is the one closest behind the goal (next to the allotments), the Shed is at the opposite end. George Fox is at the road you can see in the image, with the Jerry Kerr and the Fair Play opposite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jerry Kerr gets a great deal of stick due to its 'rats warren' layout, ageing interior and tight legroom but for an actual view it is great of you are towards the centre circle half way up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 If you turned a contemporary photo monochrome you'd be hard-pushed to know it wasn't Shielfield 50-60yrs ago. Plastic seats, floodlights, sponsor boards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have large photo's of Stainrod & Crunchie and others as well as one of the old ground as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
