Probably already posted by Flybhoy, but this is a fairly remarkable picture, even if you can’t stand ‘ra hoops’IMG_2177.jpg

Pretty impressive ( in a bad way of course ) the fans on the roof of the stand

I remember a Scotland fan achieving this when we played england once but did not know of any other examples

I know it's not Scottish but it was an open goal.

Was about to search for that very clip after reading ewan14's comment!

At Scarborough IIRC, I think the guy was ok afterwards.

Aye, I think it was Wolves' debut in Division 4. (May have been Scarborough's also.)

I've heard my dad talk about them changing the offside rules before, but not sure Clyde ever even played in the Dryborough Cup. Maybe he watched a game on telly, would the competition have been televised back then?

In season 73/74 the offside rules were changed in the LC as well .  Led to some great games eg St Mirren 4 Clyde 5  in the 1/4 Final.     http://www.stmirrenprogrammes.co.uk/StMirren/STM_Match_Details.php?Season=1973&GameID=197310100

This was used in the 74 / 75 League cup.  No pictures unfortunately but your dad may recall Dennis McQuade scoring a superb goal against Clyde in the sections, Great run and goal with or without the offside rule. . Thistle won the group and drew Airdrie in the quarter final. 

The league had started by then ( with normal offside rules) and by the time the quarter final was played, the Jags had completely forgotten the LC rules and Airdie hammered us 5-2 at Firhill. Good Airdie side though with Derek Mountfield, Paul Jonquin and Drew Busby.

Being local to Love St I was at that game. IIRC Dom Sullivan had a good night.

Falkirk: "The Diamonds".

 

I seem to recall in the Falkirk centenary book, the same black and white image saying this picture was the 'thirties, while the Historical kits site lists this outfit as being'1927-29 away'. Quite a number of teams appear to have worn black shorts away from home around that time, no matter if jerseys clashed or not.
