My dad swears on his life that he watched a game at BP of Town versus Kilmarnock. Anyone else remember this or should I get him a dementia assessment?

I may have been at that pre season friendly, with Town winning 3-0, maybe 1979 ish?

'I walked in the dressing room. The window was open and I thought that a sea fret had got in. Then I saw smoke billowing from a pipe in the corner of the room...it was my centre-forward. He looked seven stone wet through. He went on to score thirty-odd goals that season.' Lawrie McMenemy on encountering the legend that was Matt Tees.

Saw Town play St. Mirren in July, 2001 at BP during pre-season. And staying with “foreign” opposition, Willem II played a friendly v Town in 2004. Can’t help with Kilmarnock or Hibs though…

I remember us playing Aberdeen in the late 90s at home , we also did a pre season tour of Scotland around the same time.

I usually stay clear of pre season, but do remember us playing (and beating) Hesrts 2-0, and I reckon it was 1997. We also beat Aberdeen 2-1, I reckon. I do remember Jack Lester getting hauled off by Buckley in that one really early as he slapped one of their defenders across the face! I think the ref told him to get him off or else it’s a red - wouldn’t get that treatment nowadays, even in pre season. We also played Dundee when Ivano was their manager.

I remember a good run of results against Scottish teams in pre-season for the 97/98 promotion so you would be right about in being 1997.
