20 Years Ago Today. Marseille 1 Rangers 1

That run in the CL is my first real vivid memory of being a fan. The joy of the comeback against Marseille (and laughing at the idiots who left early); the surrealism of Nissy's goal against Brugge and the heartache of 0-0 at home in the last game, all mixed in with fantastic away performances. We were giants that year.

Cheating bastards indeed. Did they not bung the Russian team (CSKA I think) to lose 6-0 so they could go through? Additionally did some of the rangers players (I think Hateley was one) claim that they were offered money to throw matches? Also was that not the same year we pumped Leeds in the battle of Britain (GIRUY Cantona)? Memories going since it was such a long time ago now, but a truly great season.

Basile Boli.

There was a young left-winger in the PSV team that went by the name of Arthur Numan.

Special mention also to young 'striker' Egil Ostenstad, who played in the tie against Barcelona in the 1st round. A Barca team in which Sergio Busquets' Da was understudy to Zubizaretta.

Feeling old yet...?
