A possible museum entry... who can give us a bit of background story to this? The ode to Simpson probably refers to the Motherwell game 23/11/1929. Double sided? More pages? Brief experiment? Regular? When did it start? 🤔

Match was abandoned (@ 3-1 Ayr, 87) after a dismissed Ayr player re-entered the fray and started fighting with a crowd-member! Mostly "handbags" but ALL madness. Currently unclear (over to SFA) to decide what the resultant action should be in terms of pts, replay or sanctions...
