The Shire v St Johnstone Cup tie in 1968/9 got an unexpectedly large crowd as it was one of the few games played that day. Falkirk had no game.

I was chatting to a neighbour recently - a Dunfermline fan - and he was at the game, the Pars tie at Aberdeen having been called off the previous day.

Dumbarton gave loads of home crowds as 4000 that season. 7 League games, against Clyde, Dunfermline, Aberdeen, Ayr, Partick, Hearts and Hibs all reported a crowd of 4000.

In reality these varied from 2852 v Hibs to 4093 v Partick. I don't have an accurate figure for the Clach game.

Willie Stevenson of Stoke came on as a sub against Santos in 1969. According to the South China Morning Post, the 4 matches Santos played in Hong Kong in 1970 were all against select sides, so not against Hong Kong Rangers. They played a Hong Kong XI, HK Chinese XI and 2 games against different Hong...

There are two comparatively recent examples of ties being reversed to the opponents ground. Meadowbank Thistle v Hibernian in the Scottish Cup was played at Easter Road in 1978/9. I know as I was there. No idea what the financial arrangements were. The following year they were drawn together again a...

The match I was at was on June 11th 1977 in Holyrood Park. The programme billed it as Scotland Miners v England Miners. Team lists were made up mainly of East Juniors and Northern League players.

Jack Reilly who played in all 3 of Australia's 1974 World Cup games was born in Stonehaven.

Sam Malcolmson, born in Scotland, played for New Zealand against Scotland in the 1982 World Cup.

Romford beat Arbroath 4-1.

The Fleming brothers, Greg and Allan, were opposition goalkeepers at Annan v East Fife on Saturday September 17th.

The Latchford brothers played against each other for Motherwell and Celtic in August 1978.

The Currie brothers gave not, as yet, played against each other in a League game. However, they did play against each other in in the 2018/19 League Cup for Clyde and Stranraer.

There isn't any. It covers 1921 onwards.

If people are looking for a comprehensive statistical history then don't buy it. Results are complete but teams / appearances info is patchy.

if they want some stats and plenty of anecdotes then it is just the thing.

And very good it is too.
