mcnpauls Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 I'm convinced I saw him in the 70s in a match I went to with my dad. We're a Stirling Albion family, but would go to watch bigger sides if we wanted to see star players or famous teams. I could swear I saw the Kaiser play either in a European tie, or a friendly/testimonial in either Galsgow or Edinburgh at some point in the 70s yet cannot place it.

EddardStark Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 (edited) Maier, Beckenbauer. Breitner, Roth, Hoeness and Muller all played in the game at Ibrox in 1972. All but Roth where is in starting 11 for West Germany in the 1974 World Cup Final. Six of the starting 11 for Bayern started in the Euro Champ final in 72 which Germany won 3-0 against USSR.

Barney Rubble Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 I'm convinced I saw him in the 70s in a match I went to with my dad.

I could swear I saw the Kaiser play either in a European tie, or a friendly/testimonial in either Galsgow or Edinburgh at some point in the 70s yet cannot place it. Although the question is about Bayern Munich, he also played at Hampden for West Germany in April 1969 (1-1). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcnpauls Posted October 4, 2014 Author Share Posted October 4, 2014 Some of the young guys at work made me feel ancient by asking me which legendary foreigners I'd seen in the flesh. Mentioned, amongst others, Best at Hibs, Cruyff against Celtic in the early 80s, and Maradona at Hampden in 79 - who made a much bigger impression than the others. Missed Pele at Hampden in 66, although wee Billy Bremner kept him out if the match by all accounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joecraigfanclub Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 According to my grandad Bremner kicked Pele up and down the pitch so I suppose you are correct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
