Fairbairn Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Davie Cooper's testimonial vs Bordeaux around 1988. Pretty sure Rangers won 1-0 and I think it might have been a penalty (which I assume Cooper would have taken). Memory is pretty hazy of the game.

Morton had some crackers over the years. I could be wrong but I think that was a season or 2 after promotion to first division.

glasgow jock Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Clyde v Dundee Utd (1974) remember it well - Clyde had a player head a rocket shot off the line (Danny McGrain) and his career was just about finished after that, always remember my old man saying "he could have gone on to play for Scotland" he was and still is to this day Clyde's youngest ever captain. I think he was a relative of Celtic's Danny McGrain ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that when Del played alongside Rajamaki and the other Viking lad? He got set upon For being a twat after game at Shielfield and I’ve had a huge dislike for the cunt since then.

Ally Bongo Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) My Uncle Munro was from Chichester Met my Dad's sister when he was in the Navy, moved to Hamilton and went to every Accies home game I can vaguely remember as a 5 year oldish wearing an Accies tammy and being taken by him to old Douglas park a few times but i cant remember who they were playing. They werent big games but i recall Paul Hegarty playing My Dad used to go to every cup final and the first domestic game i remember was the 75 cup final Celtic v Airdrie and then the following year Rangers v Hearts My Mum made me wear a bright green turtle neck jumper for the 75 cup final and i recall getting a macaroon from the boy that sold them and refused an Irish Tricolour Hilarious Most i remember about the 76 cup final was DJ scoring from kick off and looking behind me at the bottles up in the air flying from side to side up the Celtic end Edited March 17, 2020 by Ally Bongo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpyauldgit Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Rangers Bayern Munich 72 Cup Winners Cup semi The game was played during a series of power strikes/rationing, so it was an afternoon kickoff instead of at night. My Mum insisted that my dad took me and my sister to the match, that way he could not go on a bender after the game and miss his night shift. Due to the fact I was only 2, I don't remember any of it, and if it was not for my dad and various other members of my family, constantly bringing up the fact for the next 48 years, that I slept through most of the game, I doubt I would ever known I was there. My older sister (Her first game as well) remembers it better, but even she say's I slept through most of it, and was more interested in going back to my granny's and playing with her dug.

Jersey Jim Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 November 74, lost 3-0 at home to East Fife, old man couldn’t believe I wanted to go back for the next home game. Could be wrong but it might have been Alex Ferguson’s first game in charge of St Mirren as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whole Dublin end was full. Think they got promoted that season actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonnyTJS Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Can't be sure, but probably 1971 - '72 season, against some mob like Gillingham. I mainly remember being struck by the colour, and how fat most of the players were, after a black & white diet of the 'athletes' served up on MotD, FA cup finals and the Mexico WC. Mainly local lads like Steve Uzelac fueled by pies, beer and fags. The exception being Peter Kitchen, the English Steve Heighway; I'm not sure I've ever had a hero to match him since.
