LochendBilly 8,413 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 March 1977 I was 14 and would have got ma baws booted if my parents knew. Much of a blur, Parlane scored and it ended 2-2. I got a lift over into the "Derry" I remember cans of lager flying over my head when they scored and the "River of pish" under my feet I learned to head up the back after that.

Start of  1972-73 season, the tarriers were rebuilding their stand so their home OF game was at Hampden. Also the first ever 12 noon kick off so the atmosphere was weird and flat, nothing like I had been told about for years previously. I don't think we even needed tickets, the crowd was probably around 50,000 which at that time was less than half the capacity. They outplayed us and they were 3-0 up before John Greig scored for us in the last minute. Yeah I was at that game bud, those taig cunts sarcastically applauding Greigs goal. Is that right or did I just imagine that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thermopylae 15,287 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 3-0 win at Ibrox back in 1985 ... a bit of a roller coaster season all round because we ended up 5th but that day everything just fell into place Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They knew the game was over and as Greig had scored at their end they just decided to take the piss by shouting and applauding, wasn't the whole end more a section of them if I remember right. Greig didn't really react just gathered the ball and made his way back to centre circle. I was 12 at the time and that's how I remember it.

harlands plater 16,990 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 My first one at Ibrox was the 1973 New Year game, we won 1-0 with a last minute header from a player I would rather forget. Fitst one at their midden we won as well, League Cup I think in 1974, Ian McDougall scored and I think Bomber Jackson? My old man and I were in their bit of the stand, couldn't even celebrate.

Was raging with him at the time. You could sense that the taigs thought they had it in the bag after that sending off. Step forward Durranty robbing Galloway and crossing for Hately - GOAL !

Prince George 601 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 27th April 1066 Scottish cup final replay at Hamden. Rangers 1 Celtic 0 Kia Johansen scored the winner. My father would not take me on the Saturday because crowd would be to big. Took me to replay and there were still over 100,000 at the match. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
