  1. Regarding streaming, I’m an example of a former season ticket holder now disabled and housebound. Getting to see my team on a Saturday again has been a real treat and I do hope it continues. Not sure about coughing up £18 to aid Ayr’s coffers though!! If it were a home game I’d have no hesitation!

  2. They’re wrong. I bought the copy myself. It came out a few weeks after the game and featured “The famous Inverness Caledonian Thistle” coming  over the horizon to help some struggling team who were the subject of the comic strip. I do think it was the Beano not the Dandy but couldn’t swear it.

  3. Went to Saturday "game" by train with Raymond Biro the late Gordyfromsneck and heard about the cancellation in the taxi we were taking to Parkhead. Spent the afternoon in various art galleries with Gordy then home. I was the only one who could make the Tuesday game so had the trip by coach and the game in a solitary dwam. I was tempted by the bookie's offer of 22 to 1 against Barry Wilson scoring the first goal but walked on much to my subsequent regret. My dwam state included a soundtrack on the way back and when I went into Tesco to get a drink around midnight I wanted to shout out the news. A few weeks later I bought the issue of the Beano (or was it the Dandy?) that included our ballistic team. Anyone else? A memorable time indeed.

  4. in hospital in Elgin but managed internet connection to get BBC commentary continually interrupted by dropouts, drug rounds and the like. But heard the final penalty. Have'nt felt so high footie-wise since making it to Parkhead on the Tuesday night all those years ago. Scottish Cup eh? Supercaleygo.........??

  5. I was at the Joopie Mitchell memorial game  against Celtic. I was in the stand with my dad and remember Tommy Gemmil amongst others. It was at Telford Street and tickets were hard to get but my dad worked alongside Alec Main so we must have got tickets via him. A memorable occasion for a young schoolboy. This is my first post by the way though I was around in the early days with the late Gordy from Sneck. I have been a lurker though and appreciate all your posts keeping me up with the news. Thanks.
