@INNY1888 Ha ha, that's wishful thinking indeed, been at many of these old Hampden Gers v Celts finals & its never looked that way ever, but it makes good conversation.
After the fourth goal went in the huns made a mass exodus along the track and out between the stand and terracing.They were totally gutted.
The film doesn't show the shambles of the third goal when John Greig and the goalie ballsed it up between them and Connelly nicked in to score.Yet Fergie was the scapegoat.I wonder why?
Yep Davy White. I was at this game as a 13 yr old. Shocking tackles and off the ball rough stuff from the huns, a Celtic "goal" disallowed, Sir Awex head butted Murdoch & Fallon at different times and the hun hordes invaded the field twice.
BTW It was Lennox who crossed for King Billy McNeill's opening goal, not "Old" as the old Etonian commentator said.
But ach, never mind. Hun skelping at its finest & we were without a number of players including Jinky.
I was at that game and remember it well. Me and my brother were standing at the very bottom of the terracing at the Rangers end when the fans started pushing downward and we had to get onto the pitch to save us from getting crushed. The police chased us around like we were jack rabbits trying to club us. We were just runnin' for our lives, dirty bastards.
splffy, for some reason my profile shows the wrong age. I was 13 at the time. 132,000 people at that match, the largest crowd to ever see an Old Firm match.
I was at that game.What the film doesn't show is that John Greig was robbed of the ball on the edge of the box by Connelly for the third goal, yet Fergie was made the scapegoat and never played again for them.After the fourth goal, the huns were not attempting to invade the pitch, they were just pouring out of the ground via the track, totally scunnered.Happy days.Davie White got his jotters soon after that.
george connelly was better than beckenbauer. if he hadn't lost the plot....

Chalmers finish is pure arrogance, that's what would have tipped those snivelling huns over the edge! What a class player.

I wish commentry was like that now, far better informed and entertaining than pricks like Andy Gray, Charlie Nicholas, and Pat Nevin.
