50 years today Celtic 2 Leeds United 1

As Max Boyce used to say "I was there" a wee bit lonely with only another 135,000 (and the rest) keeping me company lol
Standing on the Hampden terrace all squashed up together, no fekin social distancing back then, you moved with the crowd every time Celtic attacked, wee Jinky ran Leeds ragged and big Yogi (John Hughes) ran over the top of them, Revie had boasted that HIS team were the fittest in Britain, that night Celtic ran the legs off them, and all us Celtic fans witnessed ANOTHER great European game, we were spoiled in those Lisbon Lion, Jock Stein days, to me growing up in that era it was just NORMAL Celtic playing (and winning) in big european games.
FEED THE BEAR
JIMMY, OH JIMMY JOHNSTONE
hail hail.

Tim, My dad said it was the only time he couldn’t drink his carry out because the fans were that close he couldn’t get the drink out of his pocket. He also said he missed the goal in the first minute at Elland Road because he was making his way into the ground.

I don't think that Terry Cooper was ever the same player after he was given the runaround by Jinky that night.

Was at that game myself but didn't see any of it. 135,000 sardines packed into Hampden. I was thin and narrow at that time and saw a space and went for it. Went in sideways with the objective of turning round facing the pitch. Couldn't get round so ended up watching the guy's neck beside me for the full 90 minutes.

Can remember hearing Billy Bremner's take on that game. Said to Terry Cooper it was best if he stayed in the dressing room at half-time with the tanking Jinky was giving him. Good old Bremner - that's what you want to hear from your captain.

Celtic European form has been bad Copenhagen, Cluj to name a few. Rangers have been better in Europe.
