My dad walked to that game after his Satruday morning shift in the city centre. Got in just before KO and could only get to the top of the East terrace. Said he only saw the ball when it was in the air and had to go to a screening in the Rex the following week to see the goals 🤣

Quite a day it was. 136,000 inside Hampden with thousands locked out.

The feeling before the game was that, given the weather conditions, if we could hold Dundee until HT, then we could beat them. Snuffing out Billy Steele, their star man, would be crucial. A banner before the game proclaimed "We're not afraid of Steele as we've handled it all our lives". Just how it turned out: we held them until the break then scored 4 second half goals.

Where did you pick up this footage? The early scenes don't seem like Fir Park.

Scottish Cup 4th Round (Quarter Final) 1921, Motherwell 2 Partick 2. Replay 0-0, Partick won the 3rd game at Ibrox 2-1 and went on to lift the cup for the only time in their history.

North Lanarkshire heritage have footage of a few 'Well games from the 20s but as Bobbybingo mentions above it's the game against Partick thats used. You can see a few noticeable buildings in the back ground like the school and the building that sat around Edward Street area.

Its certainly post 1915, going by the map I'm looking at. You and Bobby will be right it must be from the 1920s.

On the topic of Scottish cup wins it was 33 years ago today we were heading into Hampden more in hope than expectation to play Dundee untd. To see us lift the cup that day was right up there as 1 of my proudest moments as a well fan, what a weekend that was.
