I remember exactly where I was when, as a 9 year old English kid, I learned thet England had lost, at home, to Scotland. I was upset, of course, but now I think it was probably for the best. Long time Celtic fan since.
I'm a Fan of Liverpool. Became a Fan of RANGERS after Mo Johnstone Signed because FOOTBALL is a sport that should bring people from all colours religion etc togather..
I'm a Celtic Fan, but big Jim Baxter and wee Jimmy Johnstone epitomized the way to this day i think the game should be played, beat them yes but then take the piss, its the only way you learn getting humiliated is a great motivator to do better, and that year we taught Europe a thing or 2 Absolute Legends god bless them all, It is what we pay our money for to be entertained, the barging rights, it's what inspires our children to keep the game alive attacking football combined with skill and tactical awareness - UNBEATABLE
I love Scotland because it is a working class country against english chauvinism. And learning that a bunch of lads from Glasgow came over my country, Portugal, to raise the European Champions Cup made my day.
Those were the days. For me 1967 means 3 things, Scotland beating the World champions on their own turf, Celtic winning the European Cup with a team born no more than 12 miles from Glasgow and the best year ever for music ♫ ♬ 👍👍
66/67 was unreal in Europe, Celtic winning the European Cup Rangers should have won the CWC and in the fairs cup Killie get to the semis beating Leipzig, Gent and Antwerp Dunfermline went out to the eventual winners on the away goals rule while Dundee United just beat Barcelona home and away and then Juve at home after losing away.

God help us if Rangers ever produce another Baxter, what a player he was.

English chauvinism? that's a nice thing to say about Portugal's oldest ally.

We won't be successful again in Europe tillweee go all Scottish ,bring the players through ,Glasgow is teaming with gifted players ,get it sorted
Oh what a year and maybe just maybe this Scotland team this campaign will at last restore some much needed pride in the sport i so dearly love 🤟
I wish it was in my lifetime
Wow, i didn't realise Celtic won a quadruple..
SCO'LAAAAANNNNN!!!!!!!
No mention of third lanark's demise.
what an amazing year! too bad Scotland drawn up against future world cup semi finalist in the 1970 WC qualifiers
So did the Central Coast Mariners in 2023 when we beat Melbourne City
The players are still there in the streets
Jock Stein left Hibs to go to Celtic, not The Pars
Scotland beat a team that was no longer England's best line up, no big deal to be honest.
Were never going to compete financially,so get back to grass roots ,get the boys on the park
Ceptic were lucky
Bjk
Imagine Baxter now? Rangurs fans would be screaming against the English mob. Disillusioned the lot of them
