Bo'ness United - 1984 Scottish Junior Cup winners
Bo'ness United have a long, proud history, having lifted the game's biggest prize, the Scottish Junior Cup, on three occasions, and reached the final a further three times.
This season that marks the 25th anniversary of the club's last Scottish Cup triumph.
In May 1984 Bo'ness travelled to Ibrox to face Baillieston in a final where they were very much the underdogs. However, two great goals from Lex Shields upset the odds, and took the trophy back to Bo'ness for the third time and, strangely only the first time wearing their usual blue strip.
The Bo'ness fans at the match were stirred at half-time when Thomas C Mulholland appeared on the track decked in blue and white to lead the Bo'ness faithful in the main stand in 'Our Festal Day', the 'Fair Song'.
The team that day was: Kirkwood, Dunlevie, Breen, Carroll, Caldwell, Reid, Shields, Beaton, Sinnet, Fairley, Wilson. Subs: Balanowski, Robertson.

Any chance of a 25 year celebration DVD of the game ?
