Archie Macpherson | Part 2: In The Heat Of Lisbon - Experiencing Celtic's Greatest Ever Victory
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 июл 2024
- Archie Macpherson is a bonafide Scottish Football icon having began his career as a broadcaster with the BBC over 60 years ago.
His time in the game has brought him into close contact with many legendary figures - including some of the greatest Celts of all time - and in part 2 of our exclusive 3 part series he shares his experiences of being in Lisbon for the greatest day in Celtic's history!
In his role as a commentator for the BBC Archie made his way to Portugal alongside thousands of Celtic fans where he would play his own unique role in covering the game in person at Estadio Nacional.
Its an experience he describes as "overwhelming" and as you'll hear it's one which very nearly didn't happen for the budding young broadcaster - but thankfully for Archie, and now for us, his persistence paid off!
This is the re-telling of a very special story in our history from Archie's own unique perspective and one which we're sure Celtic supporters of all ages will enjoy.
🎙️ Join Tino for Part 2 of this special mini-series with broadcaster, writer and Scottish Football icon Archie Macpherson.

@@robertcanning1888 Always remember the Celtic support being more fond of Arthur Montford as the commentator and cameras gantry hung over the jungle. Archie was considered the ‘ Blue Nose’ back in the day.
@Robert this is a brilliant comment and I sent it over to Archie directly.
He replied: 'Robert, that means a lot to me. Many thanks!'
I was there in the jungle same age. Thanks Archie.

Thanks @IronBhoy Archie's a genuine Scottish Football icon!
Fantastic - many's a time I was in the Jungle below Archie, as he walked out the gantry to the commentary box - the crowd always sang his name - he was different gravy as regards his football commentary and knowledge - I hope he has many happy years of retirement ahead of him.
Great comment Davy 🙌 Archie was a seriously talented commentator and his knowledge of the Scottish game is incredible
Fantastic.
Thanks Michael 🍀
Aw really enjoyed these two interviews. I have Archie’s book, great memories of my childhood Archie on sportscene.
Great stuff Joe. Archie's writing is brilliant!
Was in Trondhiem for our game against Rosenberg. Sitting in a bar a few hours before the game big Billy and Archie walked past looking absolutely freezing. Think they off shopping for thermals. It was Baltic and even colder at the game, plus we were rotten.
😂 Archie speaks fondly of those commentary days with Billy @John
Tremendous memories brought to life 🍀brilliant once again
Brilliant, thanks John 🍀

Thanks Geo, really appreciated 🍀
Fascinating chat. Loved the insights into the club at time. Didn’t realise Big jock didn’t celebrate the victory at the time. One question though, what the hell is an Indian Brush?
😂 We're still trying to work that out @henrik 😉
Excellent again Tino :) I’m actually reading that Jimmy McGrory book just now. Looking forward to the next show mate. Thanks HH UTLR
Great stuff @magnet Its a brilliant book. I couldn't quite recall the author when speaking to Archie but its John Cairney, who sadly passed away just in September.
Jimmy McGrory - a real Celtic (and St Rochs!) hero!
Always brilliant insight! Allowing guest to expand! Well done again!

Apparently Arthur Montford preferred golf to football. He was a Greenock Morton fan BTW
Every day a school day @Den 🙌
A heard a rumour lol. Arthur Montfords check jacket was actually a Tattoo lol. Everytime a seen him it was on. Mustve bought it with a cheque lol
A fashionable man Robert 😀
❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😮😮😮❤tht team ind sll team
🍀
Archie wae that half and half top lol
What a disgrace that the BBC hijacked a Scottish team getting to the European Cup final by as Archie says sending Kenneth Wolstenholme who didn't even know about Celtic
Yeh sounds like Archie was doing a lot of the heavy lifting there. Though he spoke very highly of Kenneth Wolstenholme in general 👍
