First Ever Scotland Game

[Hibby Bairn]

1978. Hampden in May pre-Argentina. Lost 1-0 to England. Coppell IIRC. Boiling hot and uncle bought me a Ally's Tartan Army t-shirt on the way to the game. :thumbsup:

In the North Stand, 92,000.

Celtic Park, Glasgow, Scotland
Saturday 11th October 1997
(World Cup Qualifier)

Last game of the qualification for France 98 :saltireflag

[TowerHibs]

scotland 0 - 1 Holland

mid 90's. the Bryan Roy got the goal. Think it was the last game before the old main stand got knocked down

[surreyhibbie]

Home International against Wales I think, Stanton captained Scotland and I think we won. It was strange not singing Hibs songs and I remember having to bite my tongue a few times...

[SteveHFC]

Scotland vs Germany 1-1 2003

[HibbyAndy]

Scotland 4 Iceland 1 at Hampden about 1984- 85..Paul Mcstay bagged a brace IIRC.

[Stoney Hibee]

Against England in 1981, lost 1 nil, I think it was Paul Mariner who scored with his shoulder. We sat in the Old Main Stand right at the end close to the Rangers end. I also got a "Remember Bannockburn" flag which I still have to this day.

The other thing I remember about that day was it was the first time I ever had a Dr Pepper! - Why i have remembered that I have no idea.

[Woody1985]

Scotland Vs Canada - Easter Road 3-1 IIRC

2nd was Scotland Vs T&T - Easter Road. Remember the chants to Quasie after he scored. You're not English any more! Was quite funny til he ran along punching the air in front of the fans, and yes, I did cringe.

[Removed]

1986 at Wembley. we lost 2-1. Remember Butcher scored for them and I got lifted :embarrass

[iwasthere1972]

[Owain_1987]

Scotland v Iceland can't remember year think we won 3 or 2 - 1.

[crewetollhibee]

17th May 1969 my 8th birthday. Scotland 8 Cyprus 0. Colin Stein scored 4 goals and that game is still recalled as no Scotland striker has scored a hat-trick since !! Still got the programme too.

[Bristolhibby]

Germany v Scotland, Dortmund 2003 (2-1). A late starter, just The Hibs prior to that. Am now hooked. Do on average 2 away games and 1 good hand a year.

The other thing I remember about that day was it was the first time I ever had a Dr Pepper! - Why i have remembered that I have no idea.

That was my first game. I was in the East Terracing which was a total death trap looking back on it. 88,000 and not a sound when Mariner scored apart from their players, bench and the old git who used to dress head to toe in the Union Flag.

[Dashing Bob S]

1-0 v Engerland at Hampden, goal scored by the ever popular South Africa Richard Gough. Downhill from there on in.

1982 chaps.:agree: I was outside the ground that day, unable to secure a ticket.

My first Scotland game was in September 1976, a 6 -0 thrashing of Finland.

I've heard about the peeing in fountains and showing your bums but I feel this is too much information. :faf:

[hibsdaft]

been to one Scotland match.

France vs Scotland at the Parc de Princes, 2007.

:cool2:

[Wakeyhibee]

Home Int away to Wales at Wrexham 1977 0-0 IIRC. McQueen and Jordan were in the stand behind us. Poor game but loved the Umbro shirts.

[SquashedFrogg]

1986 at Wembley. we lost 2-1. Remember Butcher scored for them and I got lifted :embarrass

My maths isn't great but would you not have been 13? :confused:

[Dibben]

Beating the World Cup holders in 1990

[Booked4Being-Ugly]

spain 85 at hampden . world cup q . won 3 nil , 73 thousand
dalgleish scored a screamer[sure it got voted hampdens best goal]
:top marksIt was Nov, 1984 i think. The score was 3-1 with Mo Johnston getting the first 2. Kenny's 3rd goal was a screamer and i still remember it quite vividly! I don't know if you remember this getting belted out by 75,000 Scotland fans "Arcanada, your a ******" :singing: .

[Frogga]

Scotland v Norway in the Vogts era... Think it was 2003 or 2004 and we lost 1-0 at home to a Iversen penalty. McFadden got sent off for a handball iirc.

Been hooked since!

Same for me! Second back row of the old main stand, couldn't even see the top of the terracing opposite. Dunno what the crowd was that day but to me it seemed like the whole of Scotland was there. I was only 7 tho ..

[Sylar]

Scotland 1-0 Sweden at Ibrox, John McGinley scored the winner!

Can't recall the date.

[number 27]

Only been to two, first was against San Marino 4 or 5 nil I think.

As a kid I used to go to loads of U21 games at ER and Swiney. Used to get a pretty good turn out as I recall.

Thinking about it, it was possibly U23 in those days, when did that change:dunno:
