Tonsilitis Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) Here's a picture of a match at Cappielow, I think circa 1963. Allan McGraw running in after a goal by Jimmy Wilson (with his arms in the air) Its before the Wee Dublin End was enlarged and benched. Note the crowd! Also the playing surface has improved somewhat since then! Trivia quiz - can anyone identify the team we are playing?

If so it`s probably St Johnstone. He didn`t join us until 1967 or so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philpy Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 The away end of East End Park last season for a big game against Forfar. See the guy up the floodlight, just to the left?? That's you that is. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My old school is just out of shot and all the wee nooks and crannies that I used to get up to no good in when I was a nipper including the wee play park at the back of the Shed. Any idea of the year of that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite honestly in terms of my football following career, have never really got over us leaving there. Its been such a long time and yet its never ever been the same.

Your not alone, Boghead was allowed to go to ruin sadly. Where we are now is a lovely location but completely soulless.

I'm Brian Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 This is Somerset Park in around 1980. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JRIuSyIqUoA We've had a stand extension, a hospitality building, a segregation fence new floodlights, new crash barriers, three new roofs, gates in the wall, some of the enclosure demolished for Bill Barr's greenhouse, a few licks of paint and that is about it since that film. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
