    Alex McLeish and Gordon Strachan played a major role in delivering 8 domestic and 2 European Cups to the Granite City, giving a unique and hilarious insight into the early Fergie years!

    I'm a Celtic supporter, but was a student in Aberdeen when Fergie was there and used to go and watch them. They were an absolutely marvellous side. I can't believe it was 40 years ago. Great seeing these two reminisce.

      I was a teenager following the reds in that period. The fans werent great! This was one of Europes top teams for 4/5 years, playing on front of half empty stadiums! Our support to hampden was poor. Nowadays we take 20k back then we took 12/14k max! We took 40k to hampden in 2014.Thats what this team should have been getting

    Because of the Premier league and the dominance it's had over the world since it began nobody talks about what Sir Alex did before Manchester United.. he broke the Celtic and Rangers dominance in Scotland and took Aberdeen to European glory also. its like Skoke City winning winning the Europa League this day an age

    If Fergie hadn't left to manage Man Utd they'd have won even more trophies in Scotland. Back then teams hated going Aberdeen to play them as Fergie broke the Celtic/Rangers stranglehold.

    As a Dons fan i always love seeing the greats talk about the glory days. I was a wee 6 year old when we won the title in 1980, and as the 80's progressed i just believed the Dons winning trophies was the norm, and would continue for ever. The memories Fergies Dons gave me back then are imprinted, they were great days, unbelievable.
    The only Scottish team with two European honours to our name.
    The last club to have beaten Real Madrid in a European Final.
    The last team outwith the Old Firm to win the title.
    The only team outwith the Old Firm to win three Scottish Cups in a row.

    Two icons of Scottish football. Being from England we didn't get to see much Scottish football back then but I do remember running home from footy training to see this legendary game. I doubt we'll ever see a team of (pretty much) all Scottish players win a major European trophy again. Alex Ferguson is the greatest manager of all time.
