I don't know - just past the halfway in the Aberdeen Cup-tie clip, there's a nice shot of me in my usual place, full of the joys.

Of course, I had more hair in those days.... :greengrin

Aye, but packed into a crowd like that we were toastie warm.

I like the comment about the 'light and lively ball'. Aye, right. :rolleyes:

Heading one of those was like nutting a concrete wall.

A stormy encounter with Austria with Hibs players in the Scots line up, check Gordon Smith getting punched by a spectator later on in the game :crazy:

this is the Austria game (http://www.scottishfa.co.uk/international_fixture_details.cfm?page=462&matchID=57556)

Curiously a stronger team was fielded for that match than the World Cup match a year earlier.

:crazy:
