Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone can help with identifying the fixture that was played at Stranraer dated 7th May 1983, I have a Complimentary Ticket for a game but when I've checked the 1st team fixtures for that season there is no game listed for that date?
I'm assuming it must be a Reserves or Junior fixture or maybe a Neutral Ground fixture given that it would have been towards the end of the season when local leagues maybe staging their cup finals?
Hope someone can assist

I've looked on the British Newspaper Archive and in the Aberdeen Press and Journal for that date it lists Stranraer to play Stirling Albion at home that day in Scottish Div 2.

The Sunday Mirror of 8 May 1983 says the match was postponed; unfortunately it doesn't say why.

Pictured is the programme for the scheduled match followed by a photo of the article in Stirling's following home programme giving an explanation as to the postponment. I believe the programme for the 7th was re issued for the rescheduled match on the 10th.

Hope this helps

(Love the very honest description of the Celtic game)

Cheers

Jim
