Debian Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Who cares. We never qualified and the goalie made an arse of it. Cunts like this still go on a out Gemmell in 78. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cunts like this still go on a out Gemmell in 78. I care. I remember I was in the Loft on Ashton Lane with a bunch of mates watching it on the big screen. At half time the bar staff were giving out tickets for free pints if Scotland won and a bunch of people were leaving and giving their tickets away before Faddy smashed home that screamer. Free drinks for the rest of the night and we had just beaten the previous year's World Cup finalists home and away in competitive matches. Something that hadn't been done to France in a very long time. What followed was even better. A genuine feeling of belief. For many of us young TA lads and lassies that IS our Gemmill '78. We're never gonna win the World Cup. You've got to enjoy the relative highlights, and hold onto the good memories, otherwise what are you even doing?

Ormond Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 (edited) Never ever experienced a feeling like that at a Scotland game. Especially walking out of the ground at the end and the French standing around us applauding for the support we had that day. From the day under the tower to the march then the game. Brilliant. Does anyone else mind the local tramp on the grassy fields under the Eiffel tower? He had a hamster/gerbil inside one of those plastic balls. What a swally he got given to him. I used to have a picture where he got that hammered he fell ontop of the hamster and crushed it. 😂 Edited September 13, 2018 by Ormond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartan Chris Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Great game. Dunno why but watching it I actually felt comfortable that Scotland would hold on to the 1-0 for once. I can't remember if Craig Gordon had that many saves to make afterwards but never really felt it would go to 1-1, think there were 20 minutes left after the goal. Probably not the best France era as Zidane had just retired and their performances at next few tournaments were very poor but hardly anyone wins a competitive game in France. I was trying to work out why this wasn't played at Stade de France, was it due to the Rugby World cup that started a few weeks later?

Probably just as well - don’t think a march to st Denis would’ve been a goer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo cop Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 To say the keeper made an arse of it, really takes the shine off what was a cracking strike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baz Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Such a good trip. Easily my best experience following Scotland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhumper Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Cracking trip, anti climax after the game. Result was amazing, best I've seen us get on the road but nowhere near my fave ever trip. Think my fave was Oslo 2005. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
