Think Bob's done a typo, assuming he means Paul Harsley who came into coach whilst Schofield was in charge.
Got to me honest, I remember them announcing they'd brought in another coach but didn't know his name until I googled it.

LOL I spent 20 minutes looking through past threads because I DID remember us signing someone as a coach with a similar name. |

As in the ex Scottish striker? Yes At long last, someone connecting Huddersfield Town to Stenhousemuir. We’re going places…. Back in the late 1960’s Town were very close to signing Russell Halliday from the Warriors. Little known fact. |

Little known fact. Love a bit of Stenny. Went and watched them against Annan Athletic last season. Unreal half-time pies! The ground has totally changed over the years and unfortunately lost a lot of its character. I was always fascinated by the club as long as I can remember and I’ve fortunately seen half a dozen games over the years at Ochilview. Larbert….. huge metropolis. |

We'll be all wearing Kilts next Depends. The kilt as worn today (short skirt-like garment) was invented by an Englishman, a factory owner and Laird iirc. Previously the massive traditional design was Irish, brought to Scotland by the Gaels. Some historians claim it was brought over by the Vikings, but they've mostly been debunked. |

A few of us have had an interest too. Always look out for their scores so we made the trip up last year. Cracking little pub next to the train station and of course only 25 mins away from Edinburgh. |

Presumably this is Fotheringham bringing in his 'own man' now he's had time to settle in. Scroll down to see the 2020-22 Scottish intake onto the UEFA Pro course...Fotheringham and Miller will no doubt have spent some time together in the collective parts of the course... www.scottishfa.co.uk/news/uefa-pro-licence-lineup-announced/(amazing almost a quarter of those on this round of the course with the Scots FA now have some kind of link with Hudds). |

Previously the massive traditional design was Irish, brought to Scotland by the Gaels. Some historians claim it was brought over by the Vikings, but they've mostly been debunked. Just about there... the industrialist from Manchester whose name escapes me needed wood and lots of it to power his factories (before coal was fully exploited). He had access to land in Glengarry and exploited the forests with the chief's agreement. The men of clan MacDonnell wore plaids... a large blanket that wraps around the body from shoulder to knees, but such a cumbersome garment got in the way of chopping down trees. Therefore, the industrialist produced the short plaid or kilt (feileadh-bhreacain) for the chief's men. They became fashionable, especially after Sir Walter Scott, who was organising the royal visit to Edinburgh of George IV, issued every attending clan with a kilt with their own specific tartan, designed by Scott. To my mind the McLeods of Skye were late to arrive which meant that only the gopping yellow kilts were left! |

Yeah, the Railway. What is now the main (only) stand used to be a long covered terrace, the now covered end terrace used to be a good sized open terrace with the clubhouse in the corner. The unused side where the dugouts are used to house a very short, but tall main stand. After they built it they realised there was no access to the seats which were elevated and above the dressing rooms, so they had to build external steps up to the seating. What is now the five-a-side pitch behind the goal was always just a low grass banking. The McCowans toffee factory next door always exuded a lovely aroma. |
