Thanks for helping me out there Drewmc ........ that sounds more like it ........ my bad memory letting me down there (but to be fair it was 40 years ago!). My pal was a bit of a lad as all Scousers are but he knew his football. When he came up to Glasgow I took him to a Celtic v Real Madrid European cup tie, 75,000 there that night and he was impressed - Celtic beat Real 2-0 that night - Laurie Cunningham (ex West Brom/England winger) was playing. I remember being impressed by Real's technical ability on the ball and even more so by their movement off the ball which had Celtic mesmerised in the first half until Celtic put two past them second half. Think Real won 3-0 at the Bernabeu in the second leg though. Anyway, sad to hear of Docherty's passing - one of the games great characters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurie Cunningham was absolutely magnificent that night. It was a fantastic occasion. I got home minus my glasses which were lost in the bedlam of the jungle after our second goal. In the second leg George McLuskey was through one on one with the score still 0 0 but fluffed his lines. Celtic had been the better team up to that point. That seemed to galvanise Real and they took control and scored 3. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First half I thought Real were bossing it, but when the first goal went in in the second half you could almost see the Real players resolve buckle at the noise from the terraces. Trying to remember who scored for Celtic in the first leg ...... Harry Hood perhaps? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Brees Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Watched the highlights of this game recently and what a player Del Bosque was. A stand out in Real’s team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ETA given our strip is predominately white it is the November game. http://www.stmirrenprogrammes.co.uk/StMirren/STM_Match_Details.php?Season=1996&GameID=199611160 It's the game Saints won 1-0. IIRC we threw everything at you after going 1-0 down, with Peter Cormack Junior getting sent off for an off the ball thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had yet to pop up briefly as our manager though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 My old man wasn't into football otherwise East Fife would have been his team. He was a laddie when that team won the League Cup and he told me once he could remember packed trains full of East Fife fans going from Buckhaven to Kirkcaldy for the derby against Raith. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would have been in 1976. He scored the only goal that night. Hate to say it but he was horribly racially abused by some of our fans. ( think there were one or two others in the Orient team as well, Vince Hillaire?) Might have been the 70s and ignorance and all that but terrible anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
