Angel eyes Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 4.....3 Scottish cups & Scottish championship, the 5-1 game should have been the highlight of the four and obviously was special but the 98 game was and still for me the best one we had a good team that season and played some good stuff we deserved something to show for it just a shame we couldn’t keep that team together longer and got to build on it.

Haha. Saw our last one, against Killie in '62. Was at the '98 one. Decided to go back for the semi in 06 as opposed to a possible final. Did go home for what turned out to be the 5-1 final but due to an anxiety thingy I was going through at the time, had already decided I'd watch it in the Mill. Have attended others but they don't qualify for the thread title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martoon Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 3 hours ago, It should have been ten said: Same here 👍🏼 Meant to edit out the 1991 sixes as I wasn't actually there. Not sure if the op meant witnessed or lived through. The Cup wins need no explanation but I'll always have a wee soft spot for the 1981/82 EoSS. Beat Hibs 2-1 at ER in the semi then Meadowbank 5-0 at Tynie. Means little now but it did at the time. Also the 1993 Youth Cup. Things were a bit flat, first team wise, but that batch of players (Locke, Ritchie, Thomas, McManus...) was very encouraging. Attended 2-1 v. Killie in an early round, a 0-6 (0-4 after 10 minutes) mauling of Ayr at Somerset and the 1-3 final at Ibrox. Wiped the floor with Rangers and even missed a penalty, iirc.

a11ank Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 First final was 1976. Seen us win everything since then. Waited 22 years for the win in 98 after so many other chances (should have beat Rangers in the league cup that went 3-4) Anyway 1998 versus Rangers marginally tops the win against the Hobos in 2012. Only because there was such a release from everyone there! Brilliant day out😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francis Albert Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 A petty thing to regret in these times but … I saw all the failures that others have listed starting with Killie in 1965. And in just the nine years after I was born we won 7 major trophies. I was deemed too wee to see any of them. Still grateful for the three in the following 58 years!
