Ranaldo Bairn Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Waitacottonpickinminute here. League Cup groups were pre-season affairs. And that match took place on Saturday 21/8/82, not "on this day". Your jibe is therefore invalid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Here's a picture from a fantastic time to be a Bairn. Swashbuckling football, loads of goals and 2 First Division championships in 4 years. Legendary strip too. Simon Stainrod was signed from Rouen for £100k in the summer after we finished mid-table in the second tier. He'd had a pretty successful, if mixed, spell in the top 2 tiers of English football, and the signing would be mind-blowing now. Looking out at the wind and the rain takes me back to 1992 when Paul Wright had conned the ref into awarding a penalty at McDiarmid that brought St Johnstone back into the game at 1-2. From kick off Kevin McAllister nudged the ball forward a foot or so and Stainrod took over... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCelt67 Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Stumbled across this picture recently which is supposedly from the Fairs Cup match between Valencia and Dunfermline. Curious as to whether or not anyone has more information on this as I wasn't aware Valencia ever played in blue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has to be from either the away leg or the playoff as footage from the home leg shows Valencia playing shorts that were a light colour. We lost 4-0 away only to win 6-2 at East End. This forced a playoff in Lisbon which Valencia won 1-0. Edited November 4, 2018 by DA Baracus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 A quick Google suggests that they've used a blue away kit many times 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7-2 Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Unless Spain were ahead of their times it must surely be the first leg as in those days the home team changed. 'Away' shirts hadn't been invented yet, just change strips for the home team when there was a clash. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In those days people had a habit of going to see what they thought might be a good game or an occasion. My dad took me and a neighbour to this. My uncle regularly took me to junior games when Clyde were away at Aberdeen/Dundee etc in the late 60s onwards. Changed days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years ago I used to go to loads of games not involving Killie or Arthurlie if neither of them were playing, especially games at Love Street, but haven't been to a senior game not involving Killie in years as I simply won't pay the prices charged nowadays to watch a game not involving a team I don't support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved it supporting the away team. You are always welcome to Somerset (away end). Every game has been a cracker so far this season, end to end stuff, loads of goals and only £17 to get in [emoji5] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were still sitting down from celebrating getting back into the game and he scored from the halfway line!

Why don't they let fans use it? No idea. The away terrace section was the least used part of the ground before redevelopment too. Could easily have it open if the away lads want a different view of the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
