Lochee F.C.
Lochee Football Club was a Scottish association football club based in Lochee, part of Dundee. History The club was founded in 1884. Lochee made its competitive debut in the Forfarshire Cup in 1885, losing 11–1 at Montrose. The result was the start of a trend, as the club's exit from the county competition was usually down to a heavy defeat: *1886–87, second round, 15–0 at home to Dundee Harp; *1887–88, first round, 7–0 at Wanderers; *1888–89, semi-final, scratched; *1889–90, first round, 14–0 at Arbroath, the half-time score being 2–0 and the Lochee collapse being "totally unexpected", and the goalkeeper was praised for his "good game, the score being no indication of the play". The club did at least have the consolation of two five-goal victories, 5–0 against the 3rd Forfar Rifle Volunteers in 1886–87 (with all five goals coming in the second half) and 8–3 against Friockheim in 1888–89. Although the club did reach the semi-final in 1888–89, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |

Broughty Castle is a historic castle on the banks of the River Tay in Broughty Ferry, Dundee, Scotland. It was completed around 1495, although the site was earlier fortified in 1454, when George Douglas, 4th Earl of Angus, received permission to build on the site.
