janie jones Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Although ultimately we have lost out over two legs we have beaten some very good sides at Tynie in my time as a Jambo - Athletico Madrid, Bologna, Slavia Prague and Stuggart to name a few. However arguably our greatest victory and performance was against Bayern in 1989. IIRC they had some very good players, went on to be German Champions that season and had previously put three goals past Inter in the San Siro in the previous round. However that night with Tynie packed to the rafters and the Shed in full voice they were lucky to get away with a one nil defeat and we were a John Coloqhoun pubic hair from putting them out over there. I know its unlikely we will come anywhere near beating Spurs but those games proved its not impossible that we could run them close. Attitude and application can go along way in football and we shouldn't underestimate the effect a raucous Tynie can have on even the best players.

I honestly would be stunned - because I think the gulf in class is huge - but you're right, it's not impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were awesome in both legs against bayern, two of my favorite goals of all time in that tie, Ferguson and Augentaller (not sure of the spelling).

Brilliant reminder. Had to have a wee chuckle at David Begg commentating on the St Pats game 2nd leg at Tynie - "well thats it, the famine is over..."
