Ach fair enough

 

In fairness, the question should of been ‘What’s changed since the original picture was taken? ‘

 

I always enjoy cup games there.Great wee ground.

It's Somerset Park Ayr before they built the extension to the stand.

 

 

Great wee Ground.  Lived in Ayr 1969-1974 and went to Somerset Park regularly.

No bad during the week too.

Table top gives it away.

True Pod.  Cape Town Stadium built for the World Cup. I was lucky enough to accompany a VIP to an opening concert there before the games. 

At the time it held 85000 but this has been reduced to 65000.

Was that a league cup game at Airdrie.  Really cold, evening game.  Macavennie made his breakthrough and scored at least a couple of goals.

Pat McCluskey I think, in the Airdrie strip? 

Big Jackie doesn't look to have got much off the ground there does he? I forgot as well that Billy Thomson often played without a number on his top.  

Maybe someone else can confirm as well but was it Billy Thomson or Campbell Money who would sometimes wear a Scotland goalkeeper top instead of their St Mirren one?

It's the easily recognisable Tommy Walker putting Airdrie 3-2 ahead , they scored 3 in 5 minutes !
