I think that must have been posted on here before, as I've defo seen it, but, yes, it is amazing.

It would be fantastic to one day have crowds somewhere in that region again. Unlikely but you never know....

Does anyone have an idea of what the attendance was?

That's great! Those Hibs chappies seem to be taking a bit of a thrashing though. I like the mini pitch invasion by raincoated Dons fans - early casual activity!

I can laugh but I was probably alive by then.......

Great to see - think I was born too late, or have a warped sense of priority / what matters, so my wife tells me..
