  1. Best one I can remember from ticketing in the past is when travel agents were selling them alongside travel package deals for Italy '90. You had to buy a book of tickets for five games, the three Scotland games plus two others, one of which was Sweden v Costa Rica which kicked off at the same time as Scotland v Brazil, which obviously wasn't much use. The other ticket was for the 2nd round game in Genoa, which turned out to be Ireland v Romania, so plenty of unsuspecting Irish holidaymakers in the resorts scored tickets from Tartan Army who were already heading home before it.
  2. Ol' Blue Eyes meets Ol' Blue Nose. Frank Sinatra can barely contain his excitement at meeting Graeme Souness at Ibrox.
  3. I think he said Man City couldn't have played well on the pitch. I reckon they probably could have. In a changing world, it's comforting to have the traditional familiarity of the guy managing Rangers coming across as a bit of a tool.
  4. Thomas Stickroth, just as he could often be seen frequenting Platform 1 at Paisley Gilmour Street with his missus after games in the early 90s. Used to get compared to George Michael. You could debate the merits of that, but not many other people were being compared to George Michael.
  5. Eilidh Barbour revealing that it was the fewest shots on goal by Rangers in any game this season, then quickly dismissing it as "being down to the blustery conditions".
  6. Crocker repeatedly apologising for the language. Presume it was his own nasal pandering he was referring to.
  7. We were in the corner, behind the goal, and from our angle it looked like it was going out for a goal kick. We were in the middle of breathing a sigh of relief, only for the net to bulge about half a second later. Pishing rain and a mud bath outside as well.
  8. FFS. Scott Norwood flashbacks.
  9. A revelation to witness an offside goal without having to endure the wait for some pint sized twerp's Microsoft Paint efforts to justify it.
  10. That "It's thiiiiirrrrrrrddd dowwwwwwnnnn" shite over the tannoy is lame at the best of times. Still doing it at the end of a blow out?
  11. We were legitimately unlucky in both games against England in the Euro 2000 play-off. The score in the first leg was flattering to them as well. I was at both matches and memories from the Wembley one include Neil McCann terrorising Sol Campbell all night and Alan Shearer killing time at the corner flag. Tony Adams went straight to Craig Brown at the end to tell him how good we had been. All a bit diddy outfit hard luck story, but there you are.
  12. He already had strolling around Hampden with Victor Wanyama in his pocket on his CV at that point. Depends who was watching.
  13. I remember him being discussed on the radio by Richard Gordon and Co prior to a St Mirren v Aberdeen game, where everyone involved would now deny that the gist of the conversation was "Aye, he looks not bad, but he's not exactly Peter Pawlett".
  14. Didn't think I would hear Matt O'Reilly dismissing the concept of reincarnation during his post match interview.
  15. I concur with this. It was after a Rod Wallace goal. I watched it unfold from the Main Stand and punches were thrown for sure. Ejections, not accompanied by a doing, were the norm during that era for anyone identifying themselves as being in the wrong end.
  16. You're either on the ground by choice or because the laws of physics put you there.
  17. If only we had a video replay system to help the refs when someone goes down in installments like that.
  18. Unfortunate team name I've just spotted on Google Maps in Springfield, Missouri.
  19. Presume this Aberdeen fan who's currently talking on Sportsound is actually just a parody character who's putting that comedy accent on.
