I can remember listening to the game as a youngster on the radio and when the last minute winner put Celtic through, I was jumping on the bed. Good memories.

Same buzz think mcluskey got the other one and that was after a 2-2 draw at paradise.

Big Billy had built a great team in the early 80's and apart from the goalkeeper (s) , I think were all Scots - as far as I can remember?
Danny McGrain, Davie Provan, Tommy Burns, Murdo Mcleod, Roy Aitken Charlie Nicholas, Frank McGarvie, George Mcluskey and Tam McAdam, among others. I think Davie Hay took over not long after for a very mixed period, before Cesar came back for the amazing Centenary Year.

Nicholas was a cracking player, although his punditary cheapens what he did on the pitch. I preferred McCluskey to McGarvey as his striking partner as McGarvey was a headless chicken. He hadn't a clue what he was going to do next and when that is the case though the defenders hadn't a clue either which could open up possibilities.

Always thought Frank was a good finisher.

Sadly, we had the death of Johnny Doyle In the early 80s.

For years after Johnny Doyle’s death there was a great framed photo in our living room of Johnny with my parents taken at a supporters dance.
I can remember Johnny and my dad with massive knots in their ties.
That must’ve been the fashion back then.

The 'Windsor' Knot used up three quarters of yer tie ha ha.
