Scored one of the penalties against Engerland in the semi......unused sub in final
Stefan Reuter came on as a sub in final
Andy Moller was in the squad but did not feature in final
all played in the second leg at FP
Tried emailing them a couple of years ago through their website contact in relation to getting an xxl in the 80s adidas kit that was sold out in that size,if they were going to produce some more........just got a bog standard reply .....auto generated reply...thanks for contacting us......Blah blah blah?....not answering my question
Plus 1
Terrible decision to bring on a player who is clearly not fit...........could have majorly backfired
apart from that excellent 3 points with some excellent performances team wise......especially Curtis
Think the English Premiership has down graded the FA cup with teams playing under strength teams to try and stay in the league as the bigger picture........and it has rubbed off up here......im sure you used to get the 3rd round on the season ticket
The old"third" round of the cup used to be a big thing when I was younger ,can always remember the claret and Amber rosettes in the late 60s early 70s and every one was "Up for the Cup"......... Tragic days......quarter final defeat against Killie at FP......... away 1-3 Stirling Albion.....Wednesday afternoon kick off replaygame against Ayr .....then losing to the ugly sisters after replays......Dixie scoring for Smeltic in quarter final replay under the lights at FP.........then the unmentionable in 1975........hibs X 3 in 76 quarter final.......28000 at FP against St Midden 1977 Fergie Fergie shut yer mouth........we always seemed to get the old firm (especially Rangers)who knocked us out regular basis 4/5 times in the mid 70sc
The decision to play an unfit McCormack is incredible.......apparently he never trained at all last week and was only involved in the Friday team tactics talk for the game (which must have been interesting)
As mentioned on other posts, the tactics of starting with two wingers when we have have hardly played with one all season is also mind boggling,then brings on a third winger in young Hastie !!!!!! When he also admits that Ariyibi wasn't 100 % match fit yet he gets 90 minutes
2-1 flattered us
Just my opinion ..........should these games continue ?????
being a certain age when the first of January meant a game against.......our real enimies Ardrieonians ( early 70s)
my gran lived in Woodside tower and can remember my dad and uncles heading down to the game and all coming back happy win lose or draw while wishing I was there ......but watching the floodlights glow whilst being forced grans home made ginger wine
first recolection was getting taken to Broomfield mid 70's and getting pumped and watching guys wearing suits and shirts and ties battering each other ........then the next year beating Ayr at FP ..........and then watching us draw 2-2 with killie on the tv at rugby park and all the players were wearing adidas sambas as the pitch was frozen solid
Was talking to mate is a St midden fan today..........he fears the worst.........but is looking at their next winnable game is us in Paisley !!!!!
they have the old firm away with a home game to Hivs in between.....then us......another wed night midweek game ..then away to sheep and hertz
