That cup final. Grrr.

Piece of trivia here....

It was the first Scottish Cup final televised live in Oz.

Yer Aussie Joe was used to the FA Cup finals, but this was his/her first taste of The Scottish equivalent.

I had been in Australia for 5 years, and was absolutely steaming by the time of the midnight kick off.

Woke up the next morning and had less than total recall...

That great save by the Huns goalie big lanky Peter Mcloy in the last minute of the first game is the nearest we have come to winning the holy grail in my lifetime. I was right behind the goal and was celebrating a certain goal when somehow Mccloy saved it

Was the Aberdeen goal the Fluke cross that went in? Was at all 3 games of that final, can't believe Colin Campbell didn't get penalty
To this day
