Laudrup1690 1,064 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Mine was cup final when lovenkrands scored last minute header,oh what a game and day for your first time old firm Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tannerall 25,935 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Walked along the Victoria Road up round the corner with my dad, down past lesser Hampden, and there was the first sign this game was different. A big (Wessex ?) RAF helicopter landing at lesser Hampden with royalty. H.R.H Princess Alexandra had landed, the first (and only ?) occasion royalty attended an old firm game. The 1973 cup final in our "centenary year ".  126,000+ squashed in to Hampden, biggest crowd i was ever in. And I remember the brave Gers fans who had climbed up the inside of the stand along the roof gantrys and were 50-60 feet above the crowd flying the Union Flag. (Does anyone else remember when our fans did that at Hampden in the seventies/eighties, absolute nutters). I was down towards the front, and was aware of the massive crowds building up. In those days the tims usually scored first,and sure enough the usual suspect Dalglish scored early on. But then Parlane scored. Half time. 1-1 Second half 17 seconds old and a mazy Alfie Conn run made it 2-1. The whole Rangers end was jumping and swaying and I'm not exaggerating when I say my dad and I were at least 50 yards further away in the terrace when it settled down. John Greig then made one of the greatest saves ever seen at Hampden right on the goal line. Unfortunately he wasn't the official goalkeeper and Connelly scored the penalty 2-2. Then the final bit of magic. Big Tam poking the ball in off his studs. Final whistle was bedlam, we'd turned a huge corner in that game against the tims and the next few years gave some of our sweetest triumphs, including more cup wins and trebles, but nothing ever surpassed that '73 cup final for me. My first Old Firm and the best.    Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brackley Bluenose 4,479 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Mine was 1994 away at the Piggery. As per usual, we left the 166 in Airdrie probably about half an hour before kick off and didn't get in until about 5 minutes into the game and Rangers were already 2-0 up from Hateley and Mickailichenko (if I've spelt that right I deserve a medal). Some game though, finished 4-2 as you'll all remember and the tarriers were in meltdown. I was only 8 and I remember Trevor Steven and Jukebox being fucking unplayable, as was Hateley. Happy New Year Timothy! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though I have vivid memories of watching Rangers games before then for whatever reason I can't remember watching an Old-Firm game before that one. Because I was brought up in England the first Old-Firm game I actually attended was in 2005 - another 3-1 game - the one where Marvin Andrew assisted Prso with what was probably the best pass he had ever played. Buffel scored and was shit-hot that day as well. Aye. Same here regarding living in England but the first game I remember seeing was the same one aswell. I would've been 10-11 at the time and only really getting into football, I'd always had shirts since a young age,but that game sticks in my mind (it must've been the free kick) as the first one IÂ actually sat down and watched.

Then we rattled 3 in succession (Craig Moore, Ronald De Boer and Michael Mols), almost certain someone got sent off for them that day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
