I have memories of us missing out in 1969 to West Germany 3-2?

 

This was the first campaign where I was fully engaged.

 

Ally Hunter still thanks Joe Jordan to this day.

Was that the game where Tommy Gemmell chased a German player half-way round the pitch to boot him up the jacksy and was then sent off?

Indeed

 

Renacted it on Skinner and Baddiel

That night was my favorite non Hearts match.

The atmosphere was just incredible 100,000 people going absolutely mental when Joe Jordan scored the winner .

We were on the east terracing 1/2 of the way up and after the goal I was nearer the front such was the surge.

Even thinking back to that match gives me goosebumps. Watching Scotland was special in those days.
