bighalders Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Was sorting out my old football programmes last night and came across the one from the European game against Bayern when Ian Ferguson scored a screamer for a 1-0 win. What a night that was. I remember the cheeky Germans saying that Tynie must be the training ground, where is the real ground, before the game. Great memories of that night, what's yours? ps and I've just checked to see Hobos out the cup to Morton, great night for fitba, and Hearts weren't even playing! :107years: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember walking out after the final whistle and thinking that`s the worst football surface I`ve ever seen! Was told later wee Doddie asked the groundstaff to go easy on the pitch!!

Harry Kinnear Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Was packed in behind goal at school end and can be seen on TV at the goal, my micro second of fame. Brian Wilson, Labour MP not Beach Boy was on train back to weeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spud Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 My dad and a mate?s dad had stopped going to Tynie. In my dad?s case, he had stopped going in protest at the treatment handed out to Willie Bauld and had never been back since. My mate and I both bought our dads a seat in the stand for the game. We had seats behind them. From when they sat down, they moaned about how it wasn?t like the good old days. Then Hearts got the free kick. Both of them were up on their feet, pumping the air, hugging each other, big smiles on their face. Its like riding a bike, you never forget.

Morry Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I was the mascot in the previous round V's Vellez Mostar. When you think about European nights like that - it makes you sick that we wasted so many european ties at Murrayfield. I'm only 24 but the biggest home Hearts crowd I've experienced(not including Barca) Was Shalke in the UEFA cup where we lost only just. The atmosphere was rubbish considering. I strongly believe it would have been a diferent outcome in a packed Tynie......anyway thats another thread for another day. You just cant beat Tynie on a Euro night!

i8hibsh Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I was in the old family enclosure (yellow seats) in what is now section N with my sister, Grandad and dad. I remember my dad driving to the game in a maroon Lada!!!! I was 12 at the time and was so happy being there with my family. I remember the smell of the hops and my grandads pipe. The Fergie's goal - what a screamer I remember the centrefold poster in the program of the team standing in a line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Sexington Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 My favourite Tynie night ever Unforgettable atmosphere and one of the best goals I've ever seen a Hearts player score. Big Slim could have made it 2 near the end IIRC. We were unlucky to go out over in Munich as well. John Colquhoun terrorised them for much of the game and I think we hit the woodwork a couple of times. Bayern were hanging on at the end. If we had have gone through we would have faced Maradona's Napoli in the semi. What a night that would have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe.gausden Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 The sway at the goal at the school end, was the most frightening and exciting experience ever ! Thats what made it for me. I moved from the shed a few seasons before that and always thought it would be a bit more civilised but when we scored against them, or indeed one of the OF or vermin it was brilliant. I remember falling over the rail into the old toilets entrance when we scored a late equaliser against the huns one time. Felt a right **** but it was worth it.

Morry Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I remember the smell of the hops and my grandads pipe. I am def for the smoking ban however as much as it choked me the smell of pipes and my grandads cigar will forever remind me of cold winter nights at Tynecastle.

BlackJAC? Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 The sway at the goal at the school end, was the most frightening and exciting experience ever ! Nah, that had to be standing at the school end during a 1-1 draw with Aberdeen when the Wheatfield stand was getting built. We were packed in like sardines and when we equalised you had no choice but to surge forward with the crowd. probably the best and worst game I've ever attended.

This is what got me thinking about that night, I found programme and poster, both in mint condition, I thought god wee Doddie etc look so young, then realised it was almost twenty years ago!!!!! One of the best nights at Tynie, so was Stuggart about ten years later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the crofter Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Myself and lostinleith spent the afternoon playing snooker down at Jock's Lodge then went back to his flat to wait for a taxi, downed half a bottle of Smirnoff Blue Label. Needless to say absolutely wrecked at the game, but what a night. I mean BAYERN MUNICH FFS. Now that is BIG TIME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
