Secondly it was about 140 degrees inside the stadium - had no voice left after 15 minutes and no energy - we literally ran out of steam - fans and team I hear you. Best story I heard from that adventure was a lot of reported stolen cars by our beloved Tartan Army when they returned back to Scotland - only to realise they forgot they drove to Spain and had left their cars there by mistake. Such was the strength of Spanish lager, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister T Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Bremner Burns (Kenny) Souness But my absolute favourite is Davie Cooper. Never got the caps his talent deserved. If only he'd played for the Hearts.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such was the strength of Spanish lager, I guess. Wouldn't surprise me at all - it's all a bit of a haze There was a TV programme about 6 months after the tournament looking back on it and there was a clip of Archie McPherson talking to the camera outside a cafe near the ground before one of the games in Malaga. As he talks a horse drawn carriage pulls up and inside are about 8 drunken scotsmen - I'd forgotten all about it but there we were. We had hired it to take us from Torremolinas for the game as it worked out about the same as two taxis. If I recall correctly we also got him to stop outside a shop to replenish the beer supplies.... On the way back after the 5-2 New Zealand game was incredible - about 10,0000 scots and New Zealanders in a convoy of cars, taxis , buses, horse carriages all the way to Torremolinas . All along the route the Spaniards cam out and clapped and cheered. A similar experience to the return to Edinburgh in 1998 I have a photo somewhere of the moment just before the match started in Seville - The Brazilians are lined up,heads high in the air , while the Scots team are looking at the ground, contemplating the enormity of the game about to start. Really was a special moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adambraejambo Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 Dalglish for me . I've been to 2 world cups and seen Scotland V Brazil and also a Hearts cup winner play well against Norway but one of my memories I cant shake was Dalglish scoring against Spain to make it 3-1 I only seen that on TV as a kid I was born in 73 but it has always been my Fav Scotland goal. I would not class my opinion as anything though , when kicking the ball against the wall in my garden I always imagined I was Mike ***** Galloway lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydney Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 (edited) In different eras I have had different favourites: Dalglish and Souness always Richard Gough and Colin Hendry Strachan for a while (early in his career and then again late in his career) Paul McStay for a while (84-88) John Collins for a while (98, especially the penalty) Mo Johnston in the lead up to 1990 Kevin Gallacher prior to the 98 world cup Jim Bett and Davie Cooper when qualifying for 86 world cup. The only one since 2000 is probably McFadden. Maybe Barry Ferguson at his peak (unpopular opinion). Edited May 31, 2021 by Sydney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambo-in-furness Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 The nutmegs against the auld enemy when we took the jules rimet trophy off them leave me with two names Denis Law Jim Baxter. victories against England are to be cherished, but a victory and a massive pisstake are something else, and my favourite ever Hearts player was in that side on that day Willie Wallace deserves a mention.

Good old fashioned Berra style Centre Halfs. Davie Cooper , Archie Gemmill , Joe Jordan and our very own John Robertson. Never understood why we didnt use McCoist and Robbo I know they were similar but both were better than anything we have had since. McFadden has that wow from his goal/s v France but otherwise meh! Stewart Kennedy just cause he helped me a lot. No. He told me to remove my Hearts scarf in his Falkirk pub in 1991.😡 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
