Poodler Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I still don’t believe the Di Stefano quote to be true but what a time to be a don. Must’ve been ace. I’d sacrifice minor pleasures in my day to day life for my fitba team to beat their arch enemies regularly. Link to comment

The Boofon Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Not winning it the following year was extremely annoying. Was almost expected we'd retain it that's how good we were. Likewise the European Cup in '85-86. Jonny Ekstrom. FFS. Ironic that Gothenburg stopped us winning the big one. Link to comment

Ten Caat Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 What was worse about Porto beating us in the semi is that oldco had faced them a couple of rounds beforehand and only got put out on away goals. I'm sure that Porto scored very late on at Ibrox to get their away goal. It would have been fucking epic to have faced der Hun in the semi and we certainly wouldn't have lost against them Link to comment

Very soon we'll no longer be able to say we were the last Scottish club to win a European trophy. Complete negativity from a millenial prick. For those of us that were there it was the best day of our lives (in a sporting sense) and likely never to be reapeated. Also, by far the greatest achievement by a provincial club in Scotland ever. Yeah, we'll hang on to our memories thank you and you can go shag yer grunny or granda mair likely. No need to reply as I have lost interest in anything you have to say (but you won't be able to help yourself- FAIL!!!!). 2 1 Link to comment

Because they lost in 83 final, and we entered as holders? Ok, could be then. I remember that second leg, a beautiful spring evening up north in tuechterland, kicking a ball around the garden, Radio Scotland commentary full blast, listening to the description of fog enveloping Pittodrie....that goal was such a sickener, knew there was no way back. Other semi was Man U v Juve I think. First leg was only TV highlights I recall, getting out only 0-1 down was seen as a good result, they pummelled us that night. What could have been.....first team to retain CWC! Alas..... Link to comment

Ke1t Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 At one time we celebrated beating the biggest clubs in the world. Today, we celebrate not getting relegated, and are playing with no recognised strikers, a barebones midfield, a defence that couldn't get a game for a local Sunday League team, a Celtic left back playing in an attacking role and who'll be at Thistle in a few months, and a goalie who may or may not be finished.

BaaBaaRedSheep Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 11th May, 2023 will be the 40th anniversary of that never to be forgotten night. The snake oil salesman will no doubt want to celebrate our most momentous achievement in style. As a Dons supporter from before and after the simply surreal Fergie era I sincerely hope our onfield performances improve by then otherwise the celebration of our finest team ever might coincide with our worst team ever. A scarey but entirely possible prospect!!! Link to comment

Black was offside for his goal. This is untrue. The law concerning offside was different back then. Black may have been in an offside position when McLeish headered the ball (I'm not sure he was), but the fact that it then came off a Real player automatically made him onside. So we won.
