Re: NLS Visit 2016?

Thanks for the update on the museum Davy. Looking forward to coming through to have a look. I am going to email Ian Scott regarding the NLS visit today. The Saturday morning of 19th November is free for me. Hope that's ok with most of you.

Re: NLS Visit 2016?

Was really looking forward to 20th August. If it was more suitable for everyone we could try to set up a midweek visit to NLS, for me a Monday or Thursday evening is best as working the other nights. Let me know your thoughts.

Re: NLS Visit 2016 CANCELLED

Ian Scott has now been back In touch regarding the NLS visit. I am afraid it can't go ahead on 20th August due to lack of time to organise as well as staff being on holiday. We can organise another date for October or November. It's probably best to do this as soon as possible to allow Ian plenty of...

Re: Scotland v Ireland 1887 - who was the referee?

The archive of Scotland matches at the RSSF also has Alexander Hunter as the referee. I think the source would have Been an IFFHS publication from the 1990s. The IFFHS had contributors from most countries so it's likely that the information came from an Irish source since there is no indication of t...

Re: 25/10/1975 line up requests

I made the decision to throw all my copies of the Rothmans yearbook in the bin last year after posting on here if anyone would want them for free. This book would have had all your line-up answers! Sorry I can't help with with the info you need.

Re: Scottish Football Almanac 3rd Edition 2016/17

The latest edition of the ‘Scottish Football Almanac’ 2016/17 popped through my letterbox yesterday. The author Andy McGregor has to be congratulated for producing such a magnificent and detailed book, which will be the football bible for the season ahead.

I forgot to mention that Celtic thrashed Arthurlie 7-0 in the following seasons Scottish Cup, so got their revenge.

Re: Football criticism

The defeat for Celtic the other night was a truly shocking result but maybe not the worst in their history. The 1897 Scottish cup defeat to Arhutlie is surely right up there.

Re: Euro 2016

Amazing result for Wales tonight! Heading down there for a weeks holiday on Monday, should be a great atmosphere for the game on Wednesday. I quite fancy Wales for the final now, I haven't been greatly impressed with Portugal. The longer this tournament goes on the more I am wishing it is the 'year ...

As well as newspapers there may be an opportunity to request books that may be of inter...
