To make you feel old, it'd still be another 7 years until i was born, my dad still wasn't legally allowed to buy booze, my grandparents were still in fulltime work and worst of all, jimmy savile wad considered a cool charitable guy

Oh yes they did .. a ruined coat and a thick lip ., thousands in Ellerslie but they didn't score for you to know..
..

I was in Ellerslie for that match as my memory serves I didnt realize there was Chelsea in there.
The funny thing was I went up in my mates motor that day, 4 chelsea and me.
And fair play they did wait for me after the game to give me a lift home.
Mate did I give them some stick.

i was in the paddock , was one of the most memorable Rangers matches ever , Chelsea were proper not happy after ,and very nearly came undone to a massive Chelsea firm at Earls Court after (not sure this lot had actually attended the match ) , still get in touch with a good Chelsea mate of mine every bank Holiday Monday to say happy anniversary !

Was it not the same year a 1-1 draw then a 2-0 replay win ?

[Bracknell Neil]

You could be right ... not sure but quite possibly

I was in the paddock, got back to the pub after the game and the amount of people that forgot about the early kick-off and missed the game

Oh yes remember it well, I think it was an Easter Monday, think they got wacked by the hammers in the game before 5-0 & us 6-0

Unbelieveably they finished 6th that season - 19 points ahead of us !

Nah, I was in my mum's tummy.

No offence meant Ginge but I had you down as one of us old farts
