Always remember Andy Gray's goal, keeper catches a cross and Gray headers it out his hands and into the net, referee gave the goal 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, they beat Malmo 1-0 in Munich, 1979 then Hamburg by the same score in Madrid a year later. Only side to have won the European Cup more often than their national league title. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.A.F.C Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I remember him launching Billy Dodds off the pitch into the blaze track at EEP. “Taxi for Dodds” He was brutal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing that annoys me somewhat is, when old grounds are flattened and replaced with whatever there is always a nod to the site's nostalgic past, Morrisons supermarket in Falkirk is called 'Brockville' for example and has imagery all over the store, many housing schemes have streets named after players, plaques etc. There is absolutely nothing there to mark what was the home to the city's football team for half a century or so, poor stuff from Cala Homes and Stirling Council in my opinion. Annfield was my first away trip- Stirling 3 Meadowbank 1 in May 1987. Thistle actually got promoted that day as results elsewhere were favourable to them. That game was also the last game on grass at Annfield. The horrible plastic pitch went in after that. This is a photo I took a couple of years ago- Annfield House is in the background. Remember having a walk up to the park a few years after it was knocked down. As FB says the old Annfield House must have been listed to have been kept so long. 1st went to Annfield in 81 so have now been watching Cowden play at Forthbank twice as long as I did at Annfield. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't say whether it was listed or not but I did do a little bit of research for a programme article on the place: "Annfield House was built in 1785 and altered and extended in the 19th Century by which time it was surrounded by newer houses of the expanding Stirling Burgh. With the newly formed Stirling Albion requiring a home the Annfield Estate was purchased in May 1945 for £5000. That sum is about £200,000 today so the club appear to have got a bargain although with hindsight raising that amount of money at the end of the War appears an impressive feat. Volunteers helped level off the pitch, erect a fence around it and goalposts were made from an ash tree that once grew on the Estate. In Annfield House volunteers helped decorate the interior and fit showers and sunken baths in the new dressing rooms which were used until the mid-1970s when a new accommodation block was built.

Flybhoy Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Celtic 4 Dundee United 0, November 1997, the week before the League Cup final between the two at Ibrox won by 3-0, Andy Thom jumping for a header with, I think Erik Pedersen although I may be wrong with the Arabs player. The temporary stand in the background which was in use for about 18 months before the Jock Stein stand was built. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
