In the spirit of reconciliation - I remember a cup replay at Boghead a few years before that, must have been late 70s? I think you won 1-0 and Ian Wallace was the star of the show. Seem to remember the crowd being about 6000 or so. Boghead was a great ground. 

Possibly the 4th round replay in 1976. Wallace scored the only goal in front of more than 7000.

I was 12 and nearly cried - the injustice of losing  to a 'diddy' team when the cup was ours to be won! 😀. Just about that time my Hibs supporting mate got a kicking at Dumbarton East. He claimed it was the Boghead casuals but ah hae ma doots! Unlucky guy, he went to see them at Berwick (George Best era methinks) and was shot in the head with an air rifle! Feck it, that was what football was about back in the day.
