droid Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 on the eve of the the cemi final got me too thinking what was my favourite game against rangers as we have taken a few tankings from them over the years. obvious choice would be 98 cup final, special mention for the 4-2 game this year, but for me it was the burley era and beating them 1-0 not a pretty game by any stretch of the imagination, but standing there singing "WE ARE UNBEATABLE" that day i did actually BELIEVE!!!

CalMac Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I half remember Mike Galloway getting sent off at Tynie for practically chopping someone in 2 on the Rangers goal-line, no idea the year or score, just remember the challenge!! I know we lost the League Cup final against them but that was one of the most exciting games I've seen, I was certain we were going on to win until that w****r Gazza.

jambosean75 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 though the 98 cup final was an amazing occasion , my favourite game was one we actually lost. the league cup final that we lost 4 - 3 was one of the most exciting games i've ever been at. while it hurt too lose i was proud of our performance that day and neil mccann had the greatest individual performance i've personally ever seen. here's hoping we get the same sort of performance tomorrow , though a better score this time round. bring on the rankgers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will never forget the image of Big Donkey Dave running 50 yards with the ball and cutting it back for Kevin Thomas to put the icing on the cake! The thing that made that game so special was that Rangers were far and away the best team in the country and when they got it back to 2-2 everyone expected them to coast it.

HoGwash Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 4-2 cup win at tynie. Will never forget the image of Big Donkey Dave running 50 yards with the ball and cutting it back for Kevin Thomas to put the icing on the cake! That one for me too. The elation of being 2 up at half time, the despair at 2 eaqch when it looked as if we'd ersed it up as usual and then getting another 2. Also the game in the 80s when we were 2 - 0 down with a couple of minutes to go and Derek O'Connor and Robbo scored at the death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bighusref Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 The special thing about the one in 2005 was that it was the first time that I GENUINELY believed that we were in with a chance of winning the league, the win was that good.

Praha06 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 1998 Cup final has to top it for me, closely followed by the 3-0 win at Ibrox when Magic(at the time) scored a hat-trick, such a great feeling that day with 40-odd thousand fans sitting in stunned silence whilst we were all going mental in the away section. The 4-2 match at Tynie was brilliant too, in 1994 I think it was, scorers were Miller, McPherson, Roboo and Thomas, I really enjoyed that game. Too many defeats in between for my liking though, but that just makes the wins all the more sweeter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a Game Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 98 cup final for me by an absolute mile. 2nd place would be in 86 when Colquhoun scored twice at Ibrox for a two nil win.

Both of those games finished 3-1 in the cup and the league both early 1986, although my favourite was beating Rangers 3-1 in 1983 at Tynecastle, just after we were promoted back to the Premier League and Jimmy Bone scored the 3rd from about 20 yards to seal it.

Buffalo Bill Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Not one game but the season 1985/86. We showed by beating them four times in one season, that with a level playing field, we can own them. Buffalo Bill . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Rock Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Scott Crabbe scored in the first minute in a 1-0 victory at Tynie (in 1991 I think). That's my favourite win (after the 98 cup final) because the level of jaw-droppingly transparent bias exhibited by the match officials for the remaining 89+ minutes meant that we beat 11 men + 3 officials that day. At one point a Rangers player was injured and another Rangers player put the ball out of play. Once the injury had been dealt with the referee awarded the the throw-in to ..yes, you guessed it.. Rangers. Even their players looked embarassed.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in the main stand as our end was completely full. The pitch was a bit frozen on top. something wrong with the undersoil heating. The only one who could keep his feet that day was wee JC and he tore the Gers defence to shreds. Big sandy also hit the bar with a great header, that would just have been the icing on the cake. The 98 Cup final for me though. Also loved the game at Tynie when big Sandy lost his boot and still managed to score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savage Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 my dad talks about the 68 replay which was before i was born. he fondly remembers jumping about with his mates at the goal and realising they were completely surrounded by huns. he also tells me we got played off the park at ibrox but somehow got away with a draw which made it even sweeter. it has to be 98 for me though and though it pains me to say it i was immensly impressed by the rangers fans that day who applauded the hearts team when they rec'd the cup and did there lap of honour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
