On the other hand, I can remember Fir Park being absolutely packed out for the quarter-final replay against Hearts that same year (the John Gardiner game )
Can also remember big travelling supports at the likes of Hibs and Dundee pre-1991.
My mate phoned up St Mirren yesterday to ask about this, and the person he spoke to denied all knowledge of tickets going on sale on the day of the game.
Were there not plans for a permanant memorial, using proceeds from the Tam Cowan night at the Civic?
And whatever happened to arranging another match for the official re-naming of the Main Stand?
