parsforlife Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Dunfermline nostalgia thread for all this pishSee if you boys actually contributed in the last few days we’d have probably not have gone off on a tangent. As it happens the glorious history of DAFC is a more interesting topic than an early season game vs some west coast nobodies 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Fez's overhead kick at Somerset was stunning albeit not in the Championship. Even better was Wee Josh out jumping sub goalie legendRyan Stevenson 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 As glorious as Joe decking Adams? After the early season loss to Ayr that season the players really raised there games against them in the subsequent games. Beating them with 10 men, knocking them out the Scottish, decking Adams, coming from 2 down at home, think itzdrk got thrown out EEP at that one. Outwith the early scudding of Cowdenbeath they were the only games to look forward too, despite winning the title by a mile it was incredibly boring for a solid half season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got chucked out the away end but ended up getting into the home end IIRC. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 That season was the first case of McCalls famous mid season collapse. After Dunfermline beat us 2-1 at Somerset there weren’t any real highlights for us until the play offs. Stevo scoring a few bangers was as good as it got. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was the league game when Murphy took a dive, got cardle sent off only for hopkirk to provide the only memorable part of his pars career and score the winner 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't find it boring at all, let alone incredibly boring, although I only went to a couple of home games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His red card for the Murphy incident was later rescinded. 22 minutes ago, DA Baracus said: Incredibly boring?

Absolutely, it was obvious from January (potentially earlier) that we were cruising towards the title, home games had absolutely no atmosphere at all, neither did away games. No tension in the games, was often a case of teams parking the bus and us getting a couple of goals. Was just absolutely meh. I'm sure it was similarly boring for Ayr fans who were pretty much guaranteed a playoff spot but weren't challenging for the title, I'm sure they would've enjoyed the playoffs right enough. Coming up on penalties would've been some laugh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly the worst game I’ve ever seen, so bad it was easy to forget how important it was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizarre with both Ayr and Stranraer being good footballing teams that year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizarre with both Ayr and Stranraer being good footballing teams that year. Both sides were too scared to commit themselves and go for it in that second leg although Stranraer did have two or three brilliant chances to score especially towards the end. The first leg was better though. We could’ve had the tie won at half time but after the second half we were lucky to draw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arguably the worst 210 minutes of football we played that season. I remember being extremely relieved when Doc equalised for us in the first leg. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Theres something about ayr I really like.McCall was one of my favourite pars players growing up and I've always enjoyed going to Somerset and also moffat is my favourite footballer of recent times.Also we seem to have a great record against them. The only time I wasnt happy was the game at eep where they kicked us off the park. McCall has done a brilliant job there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AYRSHIRE_ANGUS Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 A penalty shootout to decide who goes up and who remains in the seaside league is no fun at all I can assure you. However having a penalty saving ninja in goal helps relieve the stress. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
