One of Hibs classic European nights, there were quite a few of them over the years. Duncan's goal lit the fuse for a memorable night which will live long in the memory of those who were there.
Can remember their legendary goalkeeper, Dino Zoff, saying in the press the next day, that the noise generated by the ER crowd had affected their players.
A wonderful night to be a Hibee.

One of the classic games in Hibs history, this was a very good Hibs side and they were just fantastic that night. My dad had stopped going to the football regularly but he always went on the big European nights. One of my Sisters came along that night too. I was 11 and a half years old and it was just magic !!

I was there with my Dad and brothers. It was one of the greatest ever nights at ER and all the more amazing that we put 5 past one of the most famous goalkeepers ever to grace the game. Like other posters, Bobby Duncan’s goal is etched on my memory.

Apart from the Bobby D goal kicking things off,for me the most important moment was Pat Quinn's goal on the stroke of half time. That gave us the belief & momentum to destroy them down the slope in the 2nd half. A few weeks earlier Wee Pat had scored a hat trick at PBS, having not scored for 2 years before that. His next goal was against Napoli, some sequence.

I watched SDG`s famous goal from the north stand and watching live from there that view was etched in my mind. Now though, having watched it on you tube about 17 billion times when I think of the goal I think I now have the telly view in my mind . None of that with Bobby`s goal - one look and that was it !

Was 10 and not allowed to go. My dad had no interest whatsoever in football - lot of long "haired p**** kissing each other". Which made it all the more shocking, when he woke me up at 10.30pm and said you better come through and see this.
Having been whipped 4-1 away, thought it was just my dad wanting me to watch Hibs get another humping from the Italian giants. Sat there fearing the worst but watched in stunned wonder as Hibs tore Napoli to shreds. Will never, ever forget that Bobby Duncan goal.
Think my old man was also secretly impressed by Hibs that night ... but still a bunch of p*****.

Was there I was in the tv gantry as the standard guys felt sorry for me as I was a small 6 year old
When Bobby Duncan scored I nearly knocked over the tv camera. I was then sent down to the enclosure. I am sure the commentator was Arthur Mountford

Although, thinking back, when video recorders became household items in the mid to late 70s, I bet we all had a tape with the words “DO NOT TAPE OVER” sellotaped to it for those shows you wanted to keep!!
Bet there’s a good few VHS highlights of Hibs games out there that a lot of us have forgotten we recorded.

I’m just back from 3 days in Naples. Mental place! I wonder how many Hibs fans went to the first leg? I’m guessing travel was much more expensive and difficult back then so probably hardly anyone went.

Not only was I there to see the great Dino Zoff, I scored against him (following a little pitch incursion after the third goal). As a 12 year old I was rewarded for my efforts with eviction from the ground (immediate return to the stand to avoid the polis), two of the belt and dropped fi the team the next again day for “bringing the school into disrepute “. Happy days indeed!
