Cowdenbeath v St Mirren League Cup 16 July 2022

[Rascal]

Away to Cowdenbeath to play The Blue Brazil, a match I look forward to attending. A win for Saints will do just fine. A trip down memory lane for me as I passed the ground almost every day in 1958 and 1959.

Never the prettiest of grounds, Central Park home of Cowdenbeath. Kelty, Dunfermline and Kirkcaldy are only a few miles away with East Fife just a bit further away. A hive of football. Once full of mines and employment. The club has seen better days.

Looks like my sons will be in Elie that weekend . I have watched Saints play at Central Park before but two of our group haven’t so looking forward to it. No walkover but I hope for a win.

As I said, passed it nearly every day in 1958 and 1959. It looked better then.

And again. Remember it as much bigger than it is. Then again, I was smaller. A win will do. Say 3-0

That is a problem from time to time. They didn’t do stock cars back then

Trains are a nightmare, so will give it a miss.

Win the game and we'll be world beaters again. Anything less than a win could put pressure on Robinson.

Even in normal times there are no direct trains from Glasgow to Fife.

Does anybody have a link to buy tickets for this game?

[StanleySaint]

You have to buy tickets from the Cowdenbeath online ticketing portal, same for Airdrieoneans.
