Flybhoy Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Fergie and John Greig leading the teams out for the 1982 Scottish Cup final which Aberdeen won against Rangers 4-1 in extra time, most people will instantly associate this game with Alex McCleish curling a beauty into the top corner from 20 yards or even Neale Cooper doing a roly poly after smashing the final goal into an empty net but, personally I just always see Gordon Strachan celebrating his goal with blood streaming down his face from a burst nose. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remains me of my first ever game at old Broomfield - around Oct 1980 - Airdrie Res 0 Rangers Res 10. Rangers played a number of fringe players like Gregor Stevens. The game made the back page of the Sunday Mail because of the scoreline. I left at 0-9. Any Rangers fans with maybe programmes from 80/1 may have reference to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tannadice the only other i can think of. Four sides I've been to a few as some clubs have changed their away end over the years. Celtic Park, Hampden, Firhill, Fir Park, McDairmid Stadium, Easter Road, Tynecastle, Tannadice, Pittodrie, Old Trafford, Anfield, Stadium of Light, Brockville, Rugby Park 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvo Montalbano Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 16 hours ago, DA Baracus said: The Falconbridge match. Smith was a handful for anyone but being a big battering ram type he often got fouls given against him when they should have been in his favour. Can't remember if this was given as a free kick but if it was in the box it wasn't as we definitely didn't get a penalty that day 7 minutes ago, Eder said: Who watched a match here? In a strange way I enjoyed visiting Kilbowie. Maybe it was because my dad always wanted to sit so we often ended up in a corner of the only stand at most away games, far from the noise of the terracing. Being "all seated" meant he could still sit somewhere and I could wander off to where the atmosphere was as long as I found my way back at half time and just before the final whistle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specky Ginger Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 8 minutes ago, Eder said: Who watched a match here? Me. You could also watch trains, planes and automobiles in close proximity. I only ever sat under the enclosure in the picture, but had a few pre-match pints in the Bankies club at the far end over the years. Before the days of social media, you didn't know the team lineups in advance of the game, other than seeing who was warming up. I remember getting a few bollockings for opening the curtains to look out and see who was in the Rovers team. Saw a few good wins for Rovers over the years, a few more scuddings, but very rarely saw a dull game at Kilbowie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 We used to go to Clydebank shopping centre and the UCI cinema fairly regularly. You used to get a brilliant view of the ground from the main road 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were lucky then. Meafowbank v Clydebank games were often tedious! I did get in the Boys gate there when I was 21 though so I suspect I'm ultimately responsible for Clydebank's downfall for diddling them out of a fiver 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

one m in Motherwell Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 (edited) 2 hours ago, Eder said: Who watched a match here? I think this was where I attended my first ever game of football. Despite being a Motherwell fan my dad saw fit to drag me to a Clydebank vs Dundee game here, must have been around 1988 or so. Always remember being quite excited seeing a match on when driving past, as a wee guy it was quite cool.

After we sealed the First Division there in glorious sunshine in 1994 (5-0 and they won fuckall...) we repaired to the Atlantis Lounge for a couple of small beverages. The Bankies there were a great bunch of lads with us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
