There were over 6000 I think and it was free admission Hoping this post isn’t as embarrassing as my earlier attempt at remembering stuff but I’m 99% sure that was Falkirk we played. 4 hours ago, CraigM said: St. Mirren away around Boxing Day in about 1999. Couldn’t see past the 18 yard box due to fog, everyone assuming the game would get postponed but it went ahead anyway. Think we win 3-0 with all the goals at our end where we could see but completely sure! We won 3-1 with all the goals at the far end. Graham Fenton scored his first Mirren goal in the first half (we all saw it coming on the bus on the way up after Radio Scotland had announced he hadn’t scored since moving there). Wright scored a second half hat trick that got more difficult to see with each goal. What about the 2-0 win at Tannadice to make it 5 wins in a row at the start of one of JJs last seasons and a Killie fan having a memorable removal by Taysides finest? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 A Bob McConville thunderbolt own goal v Dundee United, that had Jim McLean pissing himself(no mean feet). Dave McFarlane signing on the day of a proposed boycott from Rangers for £100,000(where the feck did that board find the money). The whole Fleeting take over sags and all those shareholder meetings that had more folk locked out of them than in attendance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livvy Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 Wasn't there a fox on the pitch that delayed our Scottish cup game up there around the same time? Sure we lost by a goal and had an absolute stone waller turned down too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still left that board a chunk to find though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that own goal against Dundee Utd in pre season was a guy called Hugh Houston? Might be wrong, long time ago!! 87 or 88? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although does anyone remember a game (possibly Hearts) at home somewhere around this time where we did get a goal against us for a thigh back to the keeper? Pretty sure it happened at the Chadwick end but was at the other side of the goal to this one? I think the passback game was against Rangers in September 1996 (lost 4-1 but were winning until the last 20-odd minutes when we fell apart). Think McGowne committed the infringement.

SlimStripey Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 Meldrum pretty much throwing the ball in the net for what should have been a routine catch against Rangers at Ibrox. Think it might have been first game of the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we got well beat 4-1 that day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
