Great footage, spotted my Granda at 1:21 to 1:26 as Super Cooper was setting up the corner, green coat and glasses at the front. He passed away in 87.
What's not to love about this vid? Classic sportscene tune. Snow covered pitch, a disability robin reliant and Davie cooper playing in a pair of Adidas sambas :) classic stuff and oh yes the lines at the end that suggest the video needs its tracking reset.
When Scottish football was good.when football was played buy guys who were well paid,but not over paid.Too many millionaires playing now who have no interest in the club or fans they play for.
They just would not play in this anymore. Haven't seen an orange ball being used anywhere outside of Germany ,where they would play in a tsunami. for years now. Football is being played by too many prima-donna tits now. Yes it meant the football could be banal but such conditions also usually resulted in pretty entertaining goal fests like this.
Wow, that music brings it back. Sportscene, sittin by ma dad's feet watchin the highlights, mum knittin and pretendin to be interested; wee sister goin "Which one's celtic" even when it was Hibs v Partick. Look at that pitch.
The best bit is seeing the snow-covered Thundersley Invacar in the background at that last corner - do think the driver was sat in it with the engine on to keep warm? A real blast from the past...

When the 3rd Morton goal went in, you could see Morton fans celebrating inamongst Rangers fans. No wonder there were fights galore in those days

They cancel at a mild drizzle these days...
