Sorry to hear that. I didn't know Bob personally, but I did have some email contact with him a few months ago when he bought a copy of my World War One book. He was really impressed with the Thirds content.

Hi Douglas, I don't think this is the same Alex Goldie. His debut for Thirds was on 8th January 1916 at home to Dundee and the Daily Record match reports has the following "Their latest recruit, Goldie, a slim youth from Stevenston United, accepted a pass from McLean, and after travelling a short di...

Strangely enough, that's the one line-up of Thirds that I was missing from season 1943/44! Would the Dundee Evening Telegraph happen to have the Thirds scorers and the half time Craig? I can't find a match report of it in the Herald or Scotsman.

I can provide further details I have from both matches: 10/11/1894 Thirds Goalscorers: McMillan (og), Brown 2, Gardner 2, Barbour. Dumbarton Goalscorers: W.Thomson, Boyle, Seaton. 02/03/1895 Thirds Goalscorers: L.Bell 2, Brown 2. Dumbarton Goalscorers: Campbell, Nash. Thirds: Ross; Bowman, Smith; Mc...

Ok there are 5 of us going next Saturday: Myself, Gordon, Douglas, Paddy and 'Boris57'. If anyone else wants to come along then let me know. If there are any particular items/newspapers that you want to have a look at then please post here. If we could all try to be there for 9am, and the event shou...

No bother Douglas. If there is anything in particular you want to look at on the day (newspapers or books) then let me know and I will pass it on to Ian.

It's still on Syd. If there is anything in particular that you want Iain to bring out on the day then please post so I can give him plenty of notice. Personally, if I can fill in a few gaps in my Third Lanark research then it will be a successful trip. There are four of us going so far: Myself, Shaw...

Thanks for the replies on this. That's one for the list to take to Edinburgh next month!

Thanks for the info Brian, very helpful. I have quite a few Scottish cup gaps from the 1870s and 1880s, so if anyone can help further then that would be a great help. I will post all my gaps later.

For the above mentioned Scottish Cup match I am missing the team lines, goalscorers and half time. Would anyone be able to advise of a source?

I will answer my own question! The said game was played on 31st March (http://londonhearts.com/scores/images/1 ... 033104.htm).

Third Lanark played Vale of Leven in the first round of the Glasgow Charity Cup in 1887. I have found a match report for the replay on 20th April 1887 (http://londonhearts.com/scores/images/1887/1887042001.htm) but am having trouble tracing the date and match details of the first tie. I assume that ...

Here is a link to the match report with line-ups: http://londonhearts.com/scores/images/1 ... 050901.htm.
The report is at the bottom of the page. Hope this helps.

I agree that an update to Lammings book would be a Great Leap Forward, especially with the excellent research carried out by Andy Mitchell. Personally I would like to see a complete record of each senior club being published. Quite a few have already been published, especially for the 'bigger' clubs...

Hi guys, Just to confirm that Ian Scott has booked us in for the NLS visit on Saturday morning 19th November. The room is booked between 9am and 1pm. Hoping that some of you will be able to make it along. A visit to the Hearts museum is also possible if you don't need to rush away to a game. If you ...
