I actually missed the goal. I had been to the bar and was coming out the corridor when it went mental. Im in the doorway when he celebrates over that way. Still unbelievable goal when you watch it back

I was there that day at Celtic Nation. All the big name players had gone and a lot of the kids were playing.
There was a big meeting in the bar afterwards that got quite heated cos the then owners weren't very forthcoming about what was happening.
earlier this season I was sat in the back row of that stand enjoying a pint, ball came flying towards us, twat next to me ducked but threw his arms out at the same time covering me in lager. Fortunately it was a cracking day and I soon dried out

Found a bunch of old photos from a Scottish Junior game at Cambuslang when I was studying up in Glasgow. So there's some unexpected new content on the blog: A handful of old photos

On this day in 2017 … at South Shields vs Morpeth. No floodlight failures here, but no trophy presentation either as a late Morpeth equalizer made the Mariners wait a few days more. The frustration of the draw

That lad behind the goal eating his pie and chips doesn't look particularly impressed. Then again it depends how good the scran is. Some of it is food from the Gods.

Went to Cambuslang Rangers in early June last year. Was in Glasgow overnight for a meeting, and the Glasgow AFA Spring Cup Final was on at Somervell. EKRR 0-4 St Pats FP 2nds

Get the impression it hasn't changed much in the last 20 years or so?

A few more weeds probably. Don't suppose much else has changed.

Two games 'on this day'.
2016 - Spennymoor in an Evo-Stik play-off against Burscough. It snowed. In April. And it was a chill wind for Burscough, who lost and ended up relegated the following season. Spenny won 3-1, beat Northwich in the final and continued their climb up the leagues. I flew to Moscow the following week to warm up again. More on the blog at Springtime in Spennymoor
2018 - Consett lifted the Durham Challenge Cup with a 4-2 win over Dunston. Steve Wraith's adopted non-league team buried by three goals in the first half-hour, a goalkeeping howler and a red card didn't exactly help them in the second half. Steel, ready meals, and dining out on a Sweet cup triumph

I was at the Midland League Premier Division game between Highgate United and Long Eaton United on this day in 2016. It snowed there too.

A rare outbreak of new content on the blog. Earlier in the season, one of my mates went to Tooting & Mitcham and painted a portrait of a cautiously optimistic club on the up. In the context of the current problems, it's worth taking a look at what could be lost if clubs don't make it through the summer. Football for the community
