On the radio Jim Duffy said that our game was one he had picked out for a shock, only for Tom English to question whether it really was a shock.

Well, the tl;dr version is that today's result is the worst since the war, unless losing to a side who are two tiers below us or non-league is considered worse. The Scottish Cup shame games are - 1949 Clyde (N) 0-2 (this was a replay which was moved to Ibrox) 1970 East Fife (a) 0-1 1993 Arbroath (a) 0-3 1996 Montrose (a) 2-3 (replay played the day after the original tie. Wylie was sent off) 2001 Peterhead (a) 1-4 (two leagues below us) 2008 Peterhead (a) 1-2 2014 Spartans (a) 1-2 (our only cup defeat to a non-league side) 2019 East Fife (a) 1-2 Four fecking nil - Murray has really got his work cut out with this squad. Sounded drained on the radio there.

I'll see what I can find. This is only our 2nd SC defeat to Stenny. Both came with them a league below us, albeit in 1933 there only were two league.

Peterhead did us 4-1 in 2001 - and they were new to the SFL. This is worse IMO.

And now we've squandered a penalty.

FFS.

Played for the midden, so automatically labelled for life. Some laugh when Wylie saved his penalty in the 3-2 game.

I can only find a few goals by Boyd, two in the league (Firs Park and another in a 7-2 win over Stenny at Scapa). He did score a 40 yard effort give us a late 3-2 win over Bronshoj Boldklub in a friendly. Possibly mixing up two goals. The goal against Arbroath was in 2003-04, he was over at the stand when he took the shot. The other was this one in our first game of the season in 2001-02 against Stenny, when DDFR had taken over. Apologies for the poor quality. Scott Bannerman.mp4

It was a wonder goal, but I didn't applaud that because it was Charnley. Wylie was well off his line too. Can remember applauding a Cowdenbeath goal which was an 18 yard overhead kick at the WDE.

Didn't think I'd ever be watching Match of the Day and see Jaze Kabia scoring on it.

I’m in hospitality tomorrow so naturally it’s going to be called off. FFS.

My two memories of Mel were his screamer from the wing against Gretna and seeing him getting absolutely stuck into the post-match sandwiches in the Keith social club in the Highland Tour.

That appears to be the case every week and puts me off booking hospitality, which is a shame as it’s seemingly one of the best in the country. It’s one thing to be able to wander up to your seat as late as you want, but it’s another to be stuck in a queue to climb stairs and miss part of the game.

Unless I’ve missed something (and I have only skimmed the statement), it doesn’t say he’s left the club completely. Is he remaining as a director? Can’t recall any abuse at the games, other than a bunch of twelve years olds with a drum singing “sack the board” at the Airdrie game.

That was horrific. The first three goals were defensive gifts - standing off the guy for the first one, sliding in on the winger a week early (and giving him two goes at the cross) for the 2nd and that 3rd one we could all see coming the moment he took two touches. Giving a youth coach a game away to the league leaders as his first in charge - get a grip FFS.
