[edit] McDiarmid Park as a neutral football venue

It would be worth adding to the article a bit about the times when McD Park has been used as a neutral football venue. I know it has staged a couple(?) of Challenge Cup finals, a Dunfermline "home" game in European competition, plus a Scottish Cup match involving Stirling Albion and (?) circa 1991(?). Anybody anymore info on these matches and/or any others? Grievous Angel 20:29, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

It staged a couple of League Cup semi-finals: Dundee v Airdrie 95-96 and Raith v Airdrie in 94-95. The 5 Challenge Cup finals it hosted were: 94-95 Dundee v Airdrie, 95-96, Stenhousemuir v D United, 03-04 ICT v Airdrie, 04-05 Ross County v Falkirk and 06-07 Ross County v Clyde.

For what its worth, Muirton was also a neutral semi venue, staging the 69-70 Scottish Cup semi between Kille and Aberdeen. Caledonian Place 05:44, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Coordinates

The coordinates for McDiarmid Park are down to .01 of a second = one-hundredth of a second. This equals North to South 30.9 centimetres and East to West 17.1 centimetres. A hand-held GPS using degrees, minutes, seconds, only goes down to .1 of a second = one-tenth of a second. This equals North to South 3.09 metres and East to West 1.71 metres. Would the person who put these coordinates in this article, please explain how they obtained them? Sulasgeir 00:15, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tulloch

I have two e-mail replies from Perth city officials confirming that McD is in Tulloch, should anyone require verification. I contacted them because I wasn't sure if the ground was in Tulloch's boundaries or Letham's. - Dudesleeper / Talk 13:36, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
