Surely thats not Colin Stein, and I cant find a game between us and QP in 1970.
Doesn’t look like him. We may have played them in a Glasgow Cup Tie.Surely thats not Colin Stein, and I cant find a game between us and QP in 1970.

I once attended a QP v Peterhead match - very weird being in a 50,000 capacity ground with a couple of hundred watching the game.

I went to a QP v Clyde game there and it was weird seeing the stadium/pitch with no advertising round it. Looked very dark as it’s just black round the pitch without the colourful boards to liven it upI once attended a QP v Peterhead match - very weird being in a 50,000 capacity ground with a couple of hundred watching the game.
Just looked at the Complete Record book. We played Queens Park in both 69/70 and 70/71 seasons' Glasgow Cups. Stein is listed as number 9 for both games.Doesn’t look like him. We may have played them in a Glasgow Cup Tie.
I was at that game against Queens.

Lesser Hampden has been totally revamped and looks very smart.So they going to be playing at lesser hampden.
Still the 3rd most successful Scottish team in the Scottish Cup. Mental
Walked from Castlemilk many a time to Hampden. Semi- finals, Finals and plenty of Scotland games. All in the 1975-1982 timeframe.I remember as a boy walking down from Castlemilk to watch Rangers Reserves play Queens Park Strollers in an evening game at Lesser Hampden around about 1970.
I spent the entire match spreadeagled on the roof of the Rangers dugout, looking down every now and then at this strange new Rangers coach, he was a mad man, his language was shocking, he caught my eye every now and then to tell me “I told to you to bolt”. This was my first glimpse of Jock Wallace.
Yes mate.So they going to be playing at lesser hampden.
10 times they've won it, though the last time was 1893.
They also got to the english FA Cup final twice.
We made the semi-final in 1887 only to lose to Aston Villa, oh well!It’s one of my favourite football trivia questions. To ask “which 2 none English teams have played in the FA cup final”. Cardiff comes easy, the other not so much.

My youngests first and only Rangers game was the Queens Park League game over the festive period in 2012.
Outwith that lot with their inbuilt support, Rangers were the most popular other club at the time and from what I've read, not for the reasons that are usually and lazily stated.I’ve always been slightly fascinated with the thought of how big Queens Park could have been if they’d turned professional at the same time as everyone else in the 19th century.
Would they have remained the preeminent club in Scotland and would it have impacted on our support?
2019 queens park vs forfar is there was even 100 that I’d be amazedI once attended a QP v Peterhead match - very weird being in a 50,000 capacity ground with a couple of hundred watching the game.
I think the nature of why the Beasts were set up with a clear strategy of attracting the catholic population was always going to see them sit apart from the rest of Scottish football and the largely Presbyterian people that followed it.Outwith that lot with their inbuilt support, Rangers were the most popular other club at the time and from what I've read, not for the reasons that are usually and lazily stated.
We had an allure about us, we were the people's club, the Light Blues, an affectionate nickname bestowed on us in our early days due to our youthful speed and dash.
The notion that Queen's would have become the counterweight to the Parkhead club if they'd turned professional is just wishful thinking, and fostered by those with an inherent anti Rangers agenda.
10 years before his time.Half right I think.
