Hi,

Does anybody have match reports from Caley and Thistle's final matches?

14th May 1994

Huntly v Caledonian

Inverness Thistle v Lossiemouth

Thanks. 

Whatever happened to John Scott?

Was at Liverpool I believe before joining Caley.  Looked a very decent player against Rangers in the 1996 quarter final.  Then seemed to disappear.  Was only 21 when he played his last Caley Thistle game.

Doncaster Rovers 1994-95 away shirt for sale on ebay.  Look familiar?

5 videos uploaded to YouTube this morning all taken from news reports in 1993 about the merger. 

Huge thanks to Mantis for supplying the footage and to Charles Bannerman whose book Against All Odds helped with the wider context.

Did anybody attend this game?

What's your memories?

Goals from:

Dave Brennan (x1)

I’ll get that one off to you. Can’t remember anybody buying those videos except me buying 3 that you know about.

I had a mate living in Edinburgh who might have had programmes but unfortunately he died suddenly last year, I heard about it on my way back from the drubbing at Arbroath. Have you tried Bryan Munro?

I must have those 2 games somewhere unless you mean the replay at Bayview. Never seen that. I’m typing this in bed now so I’ll have a look later, is it only Caley footage I sent you?

Hi Mantis,

Mainly Caley footage but you also sent:

* Caledonian Th v Arbroath (13/08/94)

* Ross County v Caledonian Th (27/08/1994)

* Caledonian Th v Livingston (06/01/1996)

The East Fife game I was talking about was indeed the original tie - the one at Telford Street where I think there might have been snow on the pitch.  Iain Stewart opened the scoring but Arnold Dwarika equalised late on for them.

The Dundee United game was the 4th Round Replay when a last minute Mark McCulloch equaliser forced extra time but they ended up winning it 3-2.

I've got Deveronvale v Caley 22/1/94 that you can have but that's it.

Also Thistle v Caley 92-3 and Caley v Huntly 82-83 if you want them.

 

Hi Mantis,

I've just double-checked and realised that I've already got the Thistle v Caley programme from 92-93.

Thanks

Brian.

Hi Mantis,

For some reason that Deveronvale programme shows up all the time on eBay.

I would be interested in the Thistle v Caley programme from 92-93.

Do you know of anyone with Caley home programmes from 92-93 or 93-94 that they're looking to get rid of?

Also, do you know of anyone with old Caley 93-94 videos?  I've got 6 or 7 going up on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzDfh_45s60EzrGtG2-Dprw212dX2z0xo but sure there must be more out there.  Hoping the 15-0 Golspie Sutherland game is out there on video somewhere.

Last question - do you know of anyone other than yourself with old footage recorded off the tv?  I used to have the East Fife (1996) and Dundee United (1998) Scottish Cup highlights recorded off Tartan Extra and Grandstand but seem to have lost them over the years. 

Do you have any Caley programmes from 1993-94 that you're looking to sell?  I only have the Elgin, Ross County(NOS) and Inverness Thistle programmes from that season.  Seem hard to come by. 

Also, do you have any of the following for sale:

Brechin 26th Aug 1995

Queens Park 9th Sep 1995

Ross County 30th Sep 1995

Albion Rovers 21st Oct 1995

Arbroath 4th Nov 1995

For those interested in this kind of thing, plenty of ICT videos from the early 2000's now uploaded to YouTube.

15 on there from the 2003-04 championship season up to now but will continue to add to it.

Hello folks, 

I'm hoping for a massive favour!

I've trawled the internet now for many years searching for an old Caledonian FC shirt as a present for my dear father. It would mean the world to him to own a shirt again after all these years. He was and still is Caley Daft! If anyone has one and is willing to part with it, please let me know!

Thanks very much.

 

It might be a bit small for him but there's one on ebay.

I believe this is what you are referring to 

By chance, I stumbled upon that photo this morning whilst searching for pictures of Recreation Park.

Excellent shot especially given that you were just trying out your new camera!  You must have been confident it was going in or it'd have smashed the camera for sure. 

As far as best ICT goals go, check out this Paul Ritchie strike at Alloa Athletic in 2002 - 1 minute 44 seconds in to make it 4-0.

Ian Stewart lobbing Hutchison at Viccy Park in 96-97.

Denzil v Hearts in 2002

Raven’s winner v Celtic.

I'm currently in the process of uploading footage to YouTube from the old days. 

Added the Hearts game today featuring that Dennis Wyness goal. 

Enjoy!

And here is Richard Hastings in action from that game against Arbroath. 

The run of results from September and October 1995 were phenomenal.  Wins of 5-0, 5-0, 6-1 & 5-1 all recorded within a 6 week period.  Must have been great to watch and a huge tonic after the Baltacha era.

By the way, I'm needing the following programmes from that 1995-96 season if anybody is able to help:

H v Brechin City (26th August 95)

H v Queens Park (9th September 95)

H v Ross County (30th September 95)

H v Albion Rovers (21st October 95)

H v Arbroath (4th November 95)

He definitely scored a free kick in that game, I believe we were 6-0 up at half time.

It looks like the Hastings free kick was either against Cowdenbeath (14th Oct 95) or against Arbroath (4th Nov 95) as they were the only goals he scored that season. 

The goalscorers in the 6-1 win against Albion Rovers were Iain Stewart (x3), Colin Mitchell (x2) and Dave Ross (x1).

I always remember a quote from Steve Paterson about the players after the 6-1 win against Albion Rovers which appeared in one of the national football magazines:

"They let the club down"

Highlights of the 3rd round replay between Caley and Airdrie in 1990 is now available on YouTube.

Many thanks to @TheMantis for providing the footage of the 2 goals - greatly appreciated.

Don't do that. Those movies are tiny and go back to the days of dialup. I have it somewhere though.

Hi @TheMantis,

I'm hoping to get some of these old Caley/Thistle and ICT videos uploaded this summer. 

Now that the season's over, do you think there'll be any chance of searching for - and sending over - the Airdrie goals from Jan 1990 to put with the footage I have of the penalty shoot out?  I know it all takes time to try and dig out old stuff like that but would be great to have it together in one video on YouTube.

Thanks.

I hope these stats help with your project. If you need anymore Info, team lines, just let me know. All the best

Excellent, thank you very much. 

Did you get them from old programmes, newspapers or personal records?

Been scouring ebay for years for old programmes but they don't come up very often.

Is anybody able to put scores, scorers and venues to these games for Inverness Thistle 1993-94.

Highlights from the 1999 Challenge Cup Final v Alloa Athletic:

This is too exciting for words. Does the video include the pitch invasion and Hamish Morrison being raised aloft by the crowd? I was 7. I sometimes wonder if it really happened. 

Yes it does include the pitch invasion and yes it does include Hamish Morrison being raised aloft by the crowd.  It looks like the cameraman was part of the pitch invasion.  Seems to dash on and films from right in front of Hamish as he carried off the pitch.

Can't believe the game went ahead that night looking at the severity of that blizzard.

I think 18/4 as well. It was HFL and definitely 2-1 on that date with Wilsie scoring. The programme editorial by Peter Corbett and the league table show that this game was win or bust. Haven't got the Elgin scorers. Have got the Airdrie goals somewhere so I'll have a look.

Tried downloading the Airdrie goals from the nostalgia page but it downloads as a .mov and says cannot play video due to invalid file format.

Does anybody have the programme from the Caley-Thistle game on 25th April 1990 that might give the Elgin scorers from the week before?

Will start putting Caley and Thistle highlights footage out from this YouTube account over the coming months:

Caley played Elgin In the McEwans Lager North of Scotland Cup 1st round on Saturday 3rd February 1990 but the score from the paper Is 4 - 1 to Elgin.

Perhaps it could have been the 18th April game then.  Might make sense because the Elgin fans were singing championees.

Does the paper have it down as 2-1 to Elgin with Wilson Robertson scoring on 75 minutes and Elgin getting the winner on 83 minutes?

Do you know who got the goals for Elgin?

Thanks

I think the date was wednesday 18th April 1990.

Looks a bit dark for that time of year. 

Was there perhaps a North Of Scotland Cup game earlier in the season?  I saw a North Cup game on the fixture list for the Saturday after the Airdrie replay but didn't know if it was this game or if it even went ahead on the scheduled date given the snowfall during the Airdrie game.

Hi all,

Another one for you here.

Has anybody got any information on another game from 1989-90.

Its another one that I've managed to get on dvd.  The game is between Caley and Elgin City.

Finished 2-1 to Elgin with Wilson Robertson getting the Caley goal. 

Anybody know the date of the game?  I promise I'll get these games on YouTube soon.

Also, got the full penalty shoot out v Airdrie plus highlights of the game but strangely not the 2 goals from the game.  @TheMantis am I right in thinking you have the goals on video?  Would be great to merge our footage for this game and upload to YouTube.

Thanks
