Not true, there are now about 200 seats at the front of the main terracing and... eh... nope that's about it.

Opening game last time we were in 1st division. Poor game then Bashet scored in injury time. First away win for months.

It was bloody freezing last year at the rearranged night game. Stokes scored the winner in a pretty poor game.

Yep. I remember Basher got dogs abuse for 90 mins from the home fans on account of his St Mirren background. Had the last laugh though 😂

At the moment it looks as though we are going to catch a break with the weather, eight degrees and dry.

I got a £100 fine and 3 penalty points for dangerous driving as i attempted to be the first Hibby back to Edinburgh after that one, in my defence my feet were lumps of ice and i couldnt lift them from the accelerator pedal. I remember a group in front of me during the match, a few just in T Shirts and one with no socks and a pair of slippers, the colder ones spent the first half trying to persuade the others to leave at half time....a memorable night for being the worst one of the year.

Was it not Tony rougier?

Admittedly difficult to confuse the two...

Just checked, it was basher.

Ahhh Tony Rougier, the poor mans Didier Agathe, a genius on his day, unfortunately his day was Tuesday and we never played on Tuesdays, how did Raith unearth all these talents? i wonder what became of him..

Last time I was there, there was a hole in the Home terracing behind the goals near the main stand.

Looked really dangerous, as the steps had just collapsed and there was nothing underneath like shale it looked hollow!

I'll be there. I really like Cappielow, it's got that old fashioned stadium vibe. Hasn't changed since your granddad used to go.

No, dont remember that... possible though, it was a long time ago!

I remember it was pissing down though...

It's donkeys years since I've been, in fact it was when McLeish was manager. Morton was the first game of that season I think. Their pies were really ***** too. Do they still have that big hole in the stand?
