I remember coming back in tears, just one of many disappointing days for a jambo
Actually, looking back at this and I was there, there was way more than 56K there. The high terraces were still in place and there weren't any real huge gaps anywhere and the ground held 134K in those days!
There is no way that is only 56,000
what a Dunfermline team that was, put the f.a. cup holders w.b.a. out of Europe and put the mighty Lisbon lions out of the Scottish cup at parkhead that year also, come on the pars!!!
fifer Yes, they did have a good team.
@@Fernandwinnie
the sfa hated the thought of of a non OF. cup final. The only good news going back to Fife was that Rangers lost 3-2 to Aberdeen. Pure evil.
I was eight at the time. I lived on the Pitcorthrie housing estate back then, and attended St. Leonard's Junior School - no longer there. My father got a ticket to go to the final. Not long after, they played Celtic at East End. That game was abandoned due to rioting Celtic fans. A hell of a sight seeing twisted terracing on my last ever to the ground back then. My father was drafted back down south not long after. Not been back to Dunfermline since, but still keep an eye out for the club's fortunes.
The game was not abandoned - play restarted after a long delay due to the crowd problem, caused by a collapsing crush barrier. Celtic won 2-1.
@@maconescotland8996 My bad for not knowing that. I had till now believed it had been abandoned. My dad attended the game. I assumed, mistakingly, it was abandoned because he decided to leave the ground with what was going on.
@@Speedy4527 Yes, understandable.
Some Celtic fans forced entry at the Cowdenbeath end of the ground and too many spectators got in there - a crush barrier gave way and many fans were forced downward and forward causing injuries.. Play was delayed for some time until things settled down, then restarted. One Celtic fan was tragically killed attempting to climb over a turnstyle roof at the town end. To say fans rioted is inaccurate.
@@maconescotland8996 And talking about it, you can't avoid talking about the consequences of Ibrox in January 1971. I attended an FA Cup match at Fratton Park, Portsmouth the weekend after. I still remember how precarious the walk my Dad and I endured from the ground's terraces with that incident still in mind.
@@Speedy4527 That must have been an unpleasant experience. Sadly, Ibrox was a disaster waiting to happen as the late goals scenario tragically proved.
I was at the game at they said only 56k were there. Rubbish. They downplayed the attendance because no Old Firm made the final.
Rangers refused to change their match with Aberdeen to another day not giving the traditional "only game of the day" for the Scottish Cup Final. That and not allowing the Pars to have a lap of honour with the cup was shocking. Reason? we weren't Rangers or Celtic. SFA Bastards.
The Scottish Cup Final didn't get "only game of the day" status until 1977. There was a full fixture card that day apart from the games involving Dunfermline and Hearts
The reason was Dunfermline's last league game was against Celtic. It was originally scheduled for the cup final day but got postponed after Dunfermline reached the final. Rangers hopes to beat Aberdeen to put pressure on Celtic. They lost anyway and Celtic won the title.
