Just to be clear, the list of transfers was not the same season as the year ICT finished 3rd.  Those transfers in were from 2013-14 a season they finished 5th, they were 3rd in 2014-15

Scottish Cup game at Cliftonhill between Albion Rovers and Thistle. There was a car parked directly behind one of the goals. I think there’s a small terrace there now, but it was just wasteland at the time. With about 5 mins to go, the car drove away to chants of “we can see you driving out”.

Incidentally, this was the same day the famous Celtic vs Inverness CT game was postponed due to high winds blowing off part of the roof.

I seem to vaguely remember people standing on said wasteland at the same game and the police coming to move them on and the police car getting stuck?

A few seasons ago we had a home match against Ross County abandoned as a power failure plunged the ground into darkness.

A few weeks later, the match was staged again.  We'd had a couple of home games since that had been fine, so the problem had clearly been sorted.  Of course, another power failure in the rearranged game yielded the same result.  

Ross County seemed annoyed.  No idea why.

We eventually had to play them in Stirling.

The official opening of McDiarmid Park (1989 I think?) and Alex Ferguson brings his Manchester United superstars north to play us. Matt Busby is there and does a speech. 10,000 or so sell outcrowd.

Floodlights conk out in the first half leaving us in total darkness for 25 minutes.

Yup. It makes a bit of sense in England because the EPL is a separate body from the Football League, like how the SPL was separate from the SFL, However now that all 4 leagues are under the SPFL, it makes no sense and is utter w**k. It's also hugely unimaginative and a massive missed chance to have some unique branding for our leagues.

League Ane

League Twa

League Shree

League Fower

Back in those days, Hibs would have paraded a Six pack of Tennents round Easter Road on a Raleigh Burner.

Don't be stupid, the pack of Tennents would've been nicked before we had the chance
