Neil Hood to Brown's left, Jim Doherty to Nevin's right? Tommy O'Neil (?) to Brown's right? Aye, thought that was wee Nevin in the front row. Taken at Shawfield too by the look of it - my last visit was a 3-1 win for Queens in another of those seasons where we dodged relegation with a miraculous come back late in the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The seething pitch invasion by the home fans was hilarious. Ah didn't realise that. It means I was watching two future Queens players that night. John Burridge was in goals for Newcastle. He was already totally past it by then, but it would be another 6 years until he rocked up at Palmeston, having won the League Cup with Hibs in the meantime. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dundee Hibernian Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) East Stirlingshire FC, around 1900-01. That's the Stirlingshire Cup on the left, which the 'Shire won in 1900-01, but I'm unsure what the trophy on the right is... the 'Shire were runners up in the Qualifying Cup that season. Perhaps a trophy was awarded for that feat. I'm sure someone on here may recognise that fine cup. I've often thought the Stirlingshire Cup looks a grander looking trophy than the Scottish Cup. Finally, it wasn't until 1909 that goalkeepers had to wear a different coloured jersey from their team mates.

Could be the Falkirk Cottage Hospitals Shield (despite not being a shield?) which the Shire won in 1899 and 1900? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Falkirk Cottage Hospitals Shiled was a 'shield' rather than a cup.

Flybhoy Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Celtic played a friendly against Newcastle in the summer of 1985, the first game back at a partially rebuilt Celtic Park after the Hampden season. Some locals at the now demolished flats behind where the Lisbon Lions stand was to be built over the next year manage to take in the match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee Hibernian Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Clyde in 1909-10. Note the Secretary/Manager, and the Trainer. Alex Maley was younger brother of Willie Maley, Celtic manager for 43 years. Bill Struth went on to manage Rangers for 34 years, taking over from William Wilton, who had a good relationship with Willie Maley when each managed the Old Firm sides. Struth though, did not continue on that vein, widening the (sectarian) gap which had existed in the background for a number of years. Perhaps he left Clyde on poor terms, resentful of Alex Maley for some reason. Clyde historians may throw light on that, but I don't think many look in here. Scottish football may well have followed a different route if William Wilton hadn't drowned in a boating accident. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
