MATCH 1926 - Tuesday 25 July 2023

SEASON 2023/24

SCOTTISH LEAGUE CUP - Group Stage

Venue:  LESSER HAMPDEN


    QUEENS PARK  5  ELGIN CITY  0
Scorers:  Paton(4), Fox
Attendance: 676

Another Elgin City match to tick off another lower league ground.  This was my first visit to Lesser Hampden, a little ground next to Scotland's National Stadium which has been redeveopled into a modest all seated ground.

The ground consists of one neat stand and a directors stand which resembles a royal box with nothing behind either goal at present.  The main stand although small has very good sightlines for the spectators making it a present experience.

As for the match, championship Queens Park proved to be too good for Elgin and comfortably scored five with centre forward, Ruari Paton scoring four of the goals.

Personal note:
  • New ground - taking my total to 119 (53 in Scotland)
  • 4th time seeing Queens Park and 11th time attending an Elgin match
  • The 406th different senior fixture attended.
