Savage Vince Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Couldn't stand the pressure Celtic were putting us under in the last few minutes of a match at Tynecastle so I nipped to the loo to sneak a smoke and missed Austin McCann's winner.

I had my back to the pitch as did masses of other JTs. Managed to retake my place on the terracing and watch the remainder like many others. I have vivid memories of being bursting from the first minute until HT. I wish I had missed Henry’s penalty in the shootout, like he did 🤦🏽.

TexasAndy Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Was leaving the 4-4 game at 2-4 down. Just walking through the tunnel to the concourse and a roar as Hearts scored 3-4. Turned along with everyone else to try to get back and met a wall of people doing the same thing. The next minute or so was completely surreal. All I could see was the backs of about 20 or 30 heads. They turned as the ball was played up towards the Hibs goal, there was then a moment as you could see the heads stretch in some sort of anticipation, which would have been the moment the ball gets cut back to Weir. Suddenly the place went mental and all of us behind the 'lucky' heads were all dancing celebrating like the best goal we had never seen lol. In a strange way it's a memory I cherish but I now stay until the final whistle as a rule of thumb! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry Radge Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Texaco Cup tie at Motherwell about 1971 or 1972. We were 1-0 down very late on so I decided to walk back to my dad’s car. Waited for ages, no sign of anyone so decided to walk back to the park and found my dad still on the terracing and the game still going. Apparently Donald Ford had equalised at the end but I was able to see George Fleming’s winner in extra time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today with phones and social media it would never happen. I remember also leaving Murrayfield early vs AEK thinking 1,0 was a fantastic result no social media no phones etc back on the train going home then found out from a fan who just made the train it was 1.1 he left early also got home to find it was bloody 2.1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was making my way to the corner for a quick getaway as we wanted to be well away from the ground when the inevitable fighting started on the way to the City Centre. We got a corner but could only see the kick being taken. Next thing I knew it was mayhem....ant the game wasn't even on the TV for highlights later!

maroonsgotop Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 I very rarely get in late or leave early but missed both our goals in the 1968 & 1976 finals as we'd left early due to being 2-0 down in both games and feeling totally hacked off as we were being totally outplayed in those games. Can only remember missing one other goal and that was when Robbo scored the only goal from a penalty after about 5 minutes against Celtic at the end of the 1986/1987 season.

SomethingAboutObua Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Not an "important goal" but Kingston scoring v St Mirren right after they scored in like 90+2 or something, remember the crowd cheering and everyone that had gone to leave sprinting back in. Left after Gnanduillets header was ruled a foul on Saturday and that was the first draw in a long time I've decided to beat the rush and leave.

Francis Albert Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Only goal I remember missing was George Fleming's very late equaliser at Montrose in the cup in 1970. Heard a roar after leaving the ground and hauled myself up on the wee wall around the ground to see the pitch flooded with celebrating Hearts fans. Apart from avoiding one of our more embarrassing cup results it turned out to be of no great importance. Although we scraped a 1-0 win in the replay we went out meekly 2-0 to Kilmarnock away in the next round. My main memory of the Killie game was trundling around central Scotland in an unheated Football Special train for what seemed like hours. Anyway I learnt my lesson and don't think I have left a game early since except when catching a train necessitated it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartsfc_fan Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) In 2007 we beat Hibs 2-0 at Tynecastle and I missed the first goal (Pospisil after about 30 seconds) as I was at the kiosk getting a pie. Just about chucked it at the lady behind the till when we scored and jumped about the concourse celebrating the goal despite not physically seeing it.

Cruyff Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Missed Quitongo's equaliser v Celtic and Graham Weirs two goals v Hibs because I'd left the ground. Adams third goal v Killie in the 5-3 game because I was taking a piss. I hid in the toilets during the penalty shootout v Gretna and smoked a cigarette because I couldn't watch. Other than that, I don't think I've ever missed one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canscot Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Due to living overseas I have not been to many “important” games in the last 45 yrs but did make a trip home for 2012 final. Missed the third goal as I was in hospitality at half time with my Celtic supporting FiL. That man could eat! He was on his third pie when I said we better get back to our seats as the game would be restarting. also was at a run of the mill league game around 1975-76 against Clyde. Hearts winning 2-0 with a few (maybe 2) mins left so the boy I was with and I decided to leg it back to his place on Robertson Ave. Imagine our surprise when watching the results on the telly when it ended up 2-2!

PhoenixHearts Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Try 17th December 2017... I was in quite a pessimistic mood that day and not feeling like sitting through a typical 0-1 late Celtic winner. Went to a Christmas lunch at Murrayfield golf club instead with the grandmother in-law... Needless to say every time I pulled my phone I felt an increasingly curious mix of elation and regret. My own bloody fault. Still not over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
