I love old football photos too! A while ago I bought myself “Lifted over the turnstiles” by Steve Finan, it’s a great book with photos of lots of Scottish football grounds (in the back & white era!) with a wee bit historical blurb along with them. Highly recommend 😊

This pic is from the book I mentioned earlier, the caption reads “Third Lanark enlisted their first team squad in the push to get Cathkin Park playable for the visit of East Fife in February 1963, inside-forward Sammy Baird was in charge of the pneumatic drill breaking up the ice”. Loving the sheepskin jacket & fag in the mouth to help him concentrate!

Piracy, is that their game against Leicester City?

Not sure bud. I always just remember Foxes running about Celtic Park usually on winter nights.

The Den, Millwall in 1923. It's a bunnet-fest.

That's mad just how many men wore hats in those days. I wonder who was the first guy to just stop wearing his and if he ever knew he was such a trend setter?

Like when Fu kicked off his plimsole and no ones wore them since.
