Villageman Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 Plenty of crowd scenes, pity didn't show the schoolboys enclosure, might have been able to pick myself out. Aged 14 thanks to Dalziel High. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelman1991 Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 My dad walked to that game after his Satruday morning shift in the city centre. Got in just before KO and could only get to the top of the East terrace. Said he only saw the ball when it was in the air and had to go to a screening in the Rex the following week to see the goals 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmcalpin Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 Quite a day it was. 136,000 inside Hampden with thousands locked out. The feeling before the game was that, given the weather conditions, if we could hold Dundee until HT, then we could beat them. Snuffing out Billy Steele, their star man, would be crucial. A banner before the game proclaimed "We're not afraid of Steele as we've handled it all our lives". Just how it turned out: we held them until the break then scored 4 second half goals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Lanarkshire heritage have footage of a few 'Well games from the 20s but as Bobbybingo mentions above it's the game against Partick thats used. You can see a few noticeable buildings in the back ground like the school and the building that sat around Edward Street area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its certainly post 1915, going by the map I'm looking at. You and Bobby will be right it must be from the 1920s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Dosser Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 Those "soup plate" bunnets are insane, I must admit. There's also footage of a derby match with Panathonaccies which has some great crowd shots IIRC. No pipes or fags nowadays, of course.

Spiderpig Posted May 18 Report Share Posted May 18 On the topic of Scottish cup wins it was 33 years ago today we were heading into Hampden more in hope than expectation to play Dundee untd. To see us lift the cup that day was right up there as 1 of my proudest moments as a well fan, what a weekend that was. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
