I’m too young to really have seen much of either as we didn’t have wall to wall TV coverage in those days.  I remember watching the Dalglish goal against Spain in the 3-1 which sticks out.

I can only judge Dalglish on his goal scoring record and tbh it wasn’t that great for either Liverpool or Scotland if you’re looking at goals to games.  I have no idea if he set up zillions of goals for Rush which is what makes Liverpool fans rave about him. 
 

Souness ran the midfield in arguably the best club side of that era.  Gives him the nod for me.

John McEnroe.

Not a Dalglish fan after 1986 , but off the top of my head you saw what he did for Scotland once he had retired. 

His second goal against Belgium in the 2 - 3 game was amazing !!

Didn’t score against the Netherlands, but he did score against Canada, England, USSR and Yugoslavia!!!

I could have sworn he scored a penalty Vs. the Netherlands at the world cup 1978

Sorry

There may be a number of issues with Hampden, but when it’s full, on a Saturday afternoon and it matters the place is absolutely bouncing.

We need to make it a place players fucking hate visiting again.

You mean like Dons players do?

Just watched the BBC highlights there for the first time. Michael Stewart really is awful. Him cheering when we scored reminded me of the streaming/tv channels you get from clubs. Tin pot. Having a guy who was little more than an average jobber throughout his career critiquing international players is also a PTTGOMN. Other than that, it was great. The interview with Dykes at the end was great and I really enjoyed the analysis from McCann and McInnes. 

Can't fuckin wait for tomorrow's game now.

In front of me out of the massive queue there was at least 20-30% of people turning back after being rejected but it was almost exclusively their fault for being at the wrong turnstile, or being unable to work the QR code. Didn’t see anyone getting checked for the passport.

Anyone get stuck at the Covid checks?

The boy had a glance at mine but I was there 50 mins before kick off.

We took 40 minutes to get through the gates, arrived at 4.30 so we missed the first 10 minutes. There were no covid checks though at that time. No idea if the stewards were checking them before we arrived but the queue was getting frustrated so if they were checking for covid certificates when the game had started the fans would have got even more irate.

I arrived at around half 4 to the ground, maybe 5 minutes in the queue, the scanner went red when I scanned my code but there was someone working in the turnstile anyway and he just buzzed me through.

That seems to be the consensus, although the QR codes seemed to be fine as long as you were in the right place and had them already on your phone, not always a given when folk are pished.

Tories seem to have completely made that tweet up.

Just seems like trying to point-score.  Can only speak for where I was, but didn't see any kind of covid checks.  Problem was likely the same as it was in the Moldova game.  People arriving pished up and not being able to work their own QR codes.  The way they're presented in the mails could be a million times better, but it was pretty smooth when I get in (think we were about 30 minutes before kick off, expecting issues)

I suspect Liverpool fans would have Dalglish before Souness every time.  I certainly would as a Scotland fan.

The Jordan comment isn't far off the mark either.  The Hand of Jord was a thing of beauty.

It's not even close.  Souness was an excellent player, but Dalglish was the absolute superstar of the era, for both club and country.

As for Jordan, his international goalscoring record was actually pretty poor.  He did  have a knack of scoring big, important goals though, both in qualifiers and at tournaments, so he's fondly remembered in a Scotland shirt.

The 5pm start confused me.  I was in the house myself + alcohol. As the game neared the end I had it in my mind that it was midweek as it was an evening kick off, then I realised it was Saturday but an hour of post match chat then I would be thinking of heading to bed, then I realised it was about 7:30 and the wife had time to watch Strictly Come Dancing when she got in while I read these pages.
Yeah the time and day totally fucked with my head too. Hyper and steaming by 7pm (in the living room), but a bit confused about what to do with the rest of the night.

I was there and it had absolutely F*** All to do with Vaccine Passports, there were a few people in our queue with QR Code issues but they were steamin' and as always too many people turning up too late to get in................nothing but cheap opportunism in that Tweet
