I kind of object to the media calling F**kirk our local rivals. Bitter rivals yes, but not really local. Anyway, I remember sitting in the main stand at EEP sometime in the 70s when we lost 2-4 to them and a number of their supporters sitting behind me were discussing the fall of the great Pars sides of the 60s and how sad it was. They genuinely wanted the two teams back to their previous glory and there was absolutely no gloating about their victory. This has maybe be covered on earlier posts which I might have missed, but did this mutual dislike, or even hatred, all start with the tragic loss of Norrie? Sadly, I also remember their disgusting songs afterwards.

It started in early 70’s when Falkirk fans bricked Pars buses at a midweek game at Brokenville.
3rd Round cup game back through there. Revenge. It was carnage. 2-2. First ever game played on a Sunday due to the three day week. Replay was mid week with an early KO. Hardly any fans there. Pars won 1-0. It’s been bitter ever since but certainly exasperated by their reaction to Norries passing.
What an opportunity we missed in 2014.

The songs they sang,and hissing noises after Norris death, really turned up the hatred.
