I'd like to see the Mussy game covered, but the quality of floodlights may come into the equation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason QP wasn't a league side in that season. When League football started Queen's Park refused to join as the other teams were all professional. Their amateur status was only given up recently (2019) but they did deign to join the League set up eventually (1900). I'd guess they ran out of opponents for friendlies and were not doing so well in the Scottish Cup - their last win was in 1893. As such, Queens thumping a league team while non-league was not considered such a big shock. They also beat Celtic one year in the 1890s so Celtic have lost to a non-league team in their history 😁.

Footballfirst Posted November 8, 2023 Author Share Posted November 8, 2023 (edited) 1 hour ago, Mikey1874 said: East Kilbride win again I was at the game as a neutral. It was an entertaining watch. I thought Bo'ness was a bit unlucky not to take something from it. EK will win the league but I'm beginning to have some doubts about them defensively. After seeing them concede 7 v Tranent and 3 v Bo'ness, they don't handle teams that press them very well. If you stand off them, they have enough guile to play through your defence. I'm sure that more clubs will pick up on that fallibility, including any L2 side that plays them in the play-off. A nice touch was a wee hug between Shaun Rutherford (Bo'ness) and Nathan Flanagan (EK) before the game and their chatting throughout the game. The pair will have played together when both were still at Hearts (as did Ryan Stevenson). Edited November 9, 2023 by Footballfirst Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
