Wee Sandy Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Sair wan for The Diamonds..........oooft. Gotta love playing Airdrie with ten men though!! McDiarmid Park, Cup semi final 1994!! Airdrie thought they had it in the bag, rightly so, when our new Goalies Dad was sent off, bring on Brian Potter, hero for the remainder of the match, the rest is history!! Maybe next time we play them we start with ten men!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam_barnett Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 This certainly gave me a good laugh, maybe not so if you're an Airdrie fan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niall Russell Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 This certainly gave me a good laugh, maybe not so if you're an Airdrie fan! 4 (commentators plus Mainy and Davie Codd) go Doolally in Lanarkshire 🤣🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 This certainly gave me a good laugh, maybe not so if you're an Airdrie fan! I take it you're referring to the bit where they said David Hutton has always been impressive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartcraig Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 It's a feeling shared by both supports. I'd be amazed if you see anyone arguing otherwise. In fairness, anyone who witnessed last season’s capitulation to Cove Rangers wouldn’t have been surprised by that collapse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember being at a game at Broomfield around 1990 - the Warriors game was postponed or was at Stranraer or something so we went to the nearest match that was on. We left with just over 5 mins to go and it was either 1-1 or 2-1, something quite close anyway. When we got back to the car the game had finished 5-1!! Online stats point to the win being for Raith but i was remembering it as an Airdrie win. Doesn't give the goals scored times though. Anyone else remember this? I'm sure the game featured on BSB's Scottish Football's highlights package that evening, hosted by David Livingston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure it was 5-1 to the Rovers, I remember this as I always used to bet us to win 4-1! what a bummer, but it did come good in future games, notably when Agathe made his debut I was the only Rovers fan screaming for him to be taken off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the game featured on BSB's Scottish Football's highlights package that evening, hosted by David Livingston. I'm not sure if it was quite 5 minutes to go, but you're pretty much on the money - we did go from 1-1 to 5-1 in the last quarter of the game. Gordon Dalziel was subbed just after Airdrie equalised to make it 1-1 and there were rumblings of discontent among the Rovers support who reckoned Frank Connor was settling for a draw, but big Iain Ferguson came on and ran riot with his pace. Airdrie were spending a fortune at that time and won promotion at Starks Park the following May. Frank Connor left two weeks later to become Joe Jordan's assistant at Hearts.
