Rangers v Morton, 1963 with my Dad. Hampden, 105,000. First time I saw Jim Baxter. The Express had cardboard paper hats blue and white for Morton and Red White and Blue for Rangers.

They might have been the original magic hats - we won 5-0.

That might be an idea for Warburton's...........magic had edition free with your loaf.

1976 Scottish Cup Final v Hearts, DJ double and wee Doddie 3-1 to lift the domestic treble. Most excited fan at the final whistle was big Jock running around the pitch like a mad man hugging everyone - brilliant!

First time I ever sang we shall not be moved.

1979 league cup final against Aberdeen, we won 2-1 after being 1-0 down.

Big Bomber Jackson scored the winner in the last minute.

Was also at the 3 Scottish cup finals against Hibs that season. 0-0, 0-0, then and we won the third game 3-2 in a soaking Hampden after extra time.

I don't think we will ever see 3 Scottish cup finals in the one season again.

The 3-2 win in 1979 on the third attempt was my first final!

Not a pleasant experience.

I only got to the game by greeting until my maw agreed to me going as long as I was in the stand, and not the terracing.

We were 1 down by the time I eventually got to my seat due to the crowds.

3-0 down at half time, I asked my dad to take me home.

Fu cking scarred me for life, that did.

Hey Fergie. You were no Colin Stein ya balloon.

First I can remember was 1976, Scottish Cup Final against Hearts.

Time we got our carry out stashed, we were in the park for three o clock but missed the first goal.

ref started the game before the official time, still it was a stroll, 3-1.
