Hi ed was gonnae suggest last night that newbies tell there fav game mine was at love street Albert Kidd sorry for being a bit short about my misses suffers from progressive ms and my 2kids are. 11 n 8 just back from game crowd were up for it players just no doing it hail hail
{Ed007's Note - Och that's not too good, I'm really sorry to hear that mate and I'm sure you're doing a grand job taking care of your family.
As for my favourite game I can't decide between Love Street or the Wim Jansen title day. Seville was ruined for me because we didn't win and I couldn't give a toss about Barca, I pay to watch CFC not their opponent.
Oh and a special mention for the 1989 SC Final because I was there with my dad, we rarely sat together at any games over the years and that was the first Old Firm final he took me to as a treat for my 15th birthday and I got in to meet the players after the game.}

Mine was the 85 Scottish Cup Final(100th) it was my 2nd or 3rd game. I'll never forget those old wooden seats, a friend of the family who owned a garage got us all tickets - he had arranged for the C5 Sinclair to do a lap of the stadium(they had just come out) it must have been some deal he was asked to do, it was the first game I remember. Provan and McGarvey. Apart from that the centenary year when McGhee scored I think it was against Hearts, and McAvennie against D Utd. All the best DA.

First old firm game. 5-1 in 1999. Doom and gloom going into the game then Lubo arrived!

I forgot about the St Patrick's Day Massacre, we beat them,I think it was the week before or the week after also! Those were the first Old Firm games I had been to that we had won! I think games when you are younger mean more, as well as being romantic, you are also a little terrified as well, - there is always that sinister feel when you're playing them, especially as a kid!
{Ed007's Note - We beat them 2-0 (Creaney & Wdowczyk) on St Patrick's Day in 1991 in a Scottish Cup QF where Peter Grant, Mark Hately, Mark Walters and Terry Hurlock were all sent off. The following week - Palm Sunday - we beat them 3-0 with Anton Rogan, Joe Miller and Tommy Coyne scoring the goals.}

Yeah well remembered Ed, I thought one was 2-0 and the other 3-0, I couldn't remember though what game came first! I only really remember Wdowczyk's shot, and Hurlock getting sent off, - as you know the fans hated him, ex Millwall I'm sure and made Vinny Jones look like an angel. I just watched YouTube a minute ago and Forgot the Wdowczyk goal took a deflection. He had some left peg all the same!
{Ed007's Note - I had to look up some of it :) but you're right, Wdowczyk was a brilliant player for us.}

I think it was a league cup game and Murdoch sent in a free kick which dropped just a couple of yds. Out Gemmill nearly got down on his knees to head home . Legend Greig punched his goalie .
I think it was 71 or 72 .
