Ranaldo Bairn Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 The brand new Grandstand at Brockville Park, picture taken on its grand opening in 1928. The new turnstiles at Hope Street which were erected at the same time. Mrs Waugh, the fearsome looking wife of Chairman Robert Waugh, receiving a silver key to mark the opening from architect Mr Callander.

tamthebam Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Berwick's stand, as shown above, was bought second hand from Valley Parade, home of Bradford City. I've seen a photo of Valley Parade with the particular stand in it. Berwick previously played at Old Shielfield, currently the home of Tweedmouth Rangers, and which backs onto New Shielfield for those who have never enjoyed the delights of a visit to Berwick Rangers (or Tweedmouth) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Sanchez Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 A couple more of City Park, minus the Main Stand, that I took at Spartans v St Mirren on 5th Feb 2006. The free view from the street outside and the grassy slope of the away section, taken while I was still incognito, having got in with a home end ticket. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Oof, what a day that was. Lunchtime ko on a Sunday, no trains so replacement bus, numerous cans of Stella for breakfast, Diane's for more pre-match libations, a shite 0-0 draw, taking over some pub in Stockbridge post-match. Saints fined £25k for having one too few u21 outfield players, won the replay 3-0. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louis Theroux is out of his box in the foreground whilst a hardy but lardy visitor from Forfar is sporting what appears to be a pair of Loons branded budgie smugglers. Will never fail to amuse me how every so often this picture pops up..... Glad I got on the pitch early on that day Yours, Louis Theroux 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the foreground is that the fence your chairman Stewart Gilmour claimed to have scaled in trying to argue the venue was unfit or was that the wall to the right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a meeting with the cops and other interested parties and they were only allowed to stage the game there on condition that the away ticket allocation was increased by 150% and the height of the perimeter fence was raised so that you couldn't just easily step over it like Gilmour did. The wooden bit on the right is the start of the extra fencing that was put up. The metal fence is the boundary of the adjacent disused railway/footpath, and whole host of people watched the game from there too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluearmyfaction Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 (edited) More fun protests: 1. we lost to a team that didn't exist; 2. there was a tree in the way. (Brechin not the only pitch to have a hedge.) Edited February 4 by bluearmyfaction 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
