Dunfermline at East End Park.  Donnie McKinnon on the right and using the Dunfermline player on the left (Alex Ferguson) suggests it is 1 of 2 possibilities:- 28/8/1965 (League Cup 2-6) or 22/2/1967 (Scottish Cup 1-5). 

Since the SC match was a night match under the lights I think it must be the League Cup game.  The Evening Times report says Hunter threw himself at a low flag kick on the half hour to put Dunfermline ahead 2-1.  Other Thistle player Davie Closs?

Niven, Campbell, Muir (possibly his right leg!), HOGAN, McKinnon, McParland, GIBB, Hainey, Rae, Closs, Roxburgh.

Great work as usual.

Great stuff. I used to remember East End Park as a hell of a place for us..... never saw us win there in decades...... but that (like Tannadice) particular problem hasn't been so sore in recent years.

I have only a vague memory of John Gray - I remember he scored  goals in his first few games but then disappeared without trace.

Good to read the report on the game - no Thistle fan who was there will forget Denis McQuade's astonishing goal. The description - magnificent...mazy...beating 4 men...glorious shot - doesn't really do it justice. I can still see Denis running in a complete circle and the Referee almost failing over to get out of his way as the ultimate gangling winger weaved past defender after defender before firing a 20 yard rocket into the net.

Fantastic goal - one of the best I have ever seen in the flesh.  I can still hear the roar of appreciation from the shed when Denis took his place for the re-start.  Was there really only 2000 of us there that night?

McDonald, Ian scores v Dundee United (H) Apr 1980.jpg

Is that Ian McDonald being the meat in the sandwich? If it's not then someone must've stolen his 'tash

I was young but sure there was more than that there. One of the best goals ever but I'm positive he beat at least 9 men :lol:
