My dad has often mentioned this final when it went replays in them days and how we were denied a stonewall penalty in one of the replays - don't know which one. I would just like to say to all the fans who witnessed that and all those who witnessed today - take it in and have a wonderful weekend. GGTTH always.

Stonewaller. Colin Campbell brought down in box minutes before end of second game, I think. But this was in the days when the men n black were personally trained at Ibrox. Thought ref today did a good enough job, especially in not dragging on the time after the third goal. Many would have given them 3 or 4 more minutes.

Campbell's stonewaller was about 4:40 on the Saturday of the first game. There should have been no need for any replay.

Plus McCloy should've been sent off for his outrageous 'tackle' on Campbell - he made no attempt whatsoever to get the Ball, he was only concerned with taking Campbell out !!

And there was more violence and mayhem than you could possibly imagine. Doesn't make today's events acceptable though.

Keepers got away with it in those days...
