Sad news about Andy King. I saw Duncan McKenzie play for Blackburn Rovers in the late 70's early 80's. Can you remember this?

This is unreal. I'm a 48 year old semi-grown man and I couldn't sleep last night for thinking about us playing in the cup final tomorrow, I doubt I'll sleep tonight either. I can hardly bear this tension, we're massive underdogs but I keep thinking ... what if????

Glasgow will be bouncing tomorrow with both sets of fans mixing and having a good time.

Bang on. When Hibs thrashed us back in 2007, the atmosphere before, during and after the game was friendly and relaxed with minimal police involvement.
It was completely different in 2012 when we beat Celtic. The police were stupidly heavy handed with both sets of fans and the atmosphere was poisonous, particularly after the game. Not helped by the more adventurous Killie fans reacting to our unshakeable tag of being 'Huns without the bus pass'...
Good luck and enjoy! From what I've seen both sides play a reasonably hoofbaw free style of game so hopefully it will be good viewing (he says, jinxing it into a miserable kick fest).

That game might have been in March 1979, it was 1-1 and although I was there, I can't remember the goals. I was at the back of the Anfield Road terracing so if he scored into the Kop I might well not have seen the goal anyway.
Another game King scored in against Liverpool was in October 1979 in a 2-2 draw at Anfield (Mick Lyons scored 2 own goals that day). That time I was near the front of the Anfield Road terracing just to the left of the goal, King scored an equaliser into the Anny Rd goal and celebrated just in front of us, I have an incredibly vivid image of him facing us with his fists clenched in celebration - a magic moment (among many other not so magic moments I can recall against the reds). Can't find any footage of either game, although there is an interview on YouTube with Terry McDermott talking about him and Garry Stanley both getting sent off for fighting in that game.

Not a great game in the end. Very nervous and a disastrous mistake for the winner. Still, ICT are a great success story in fitba.
Bring on Englandshire's effort. I've got mates on both sides but my closest is on the Villa side so that's who I'm backing.

Just back. Not a big gulf in class between 3rd in the Prem and 5th in the Championship is there?
Wow! I don't think we'll ever see anything like Messi again, we are lucky to be alive to see him. He's not normal, his legs are too short for his body and he's a pipsqueak that can't run "right", his touch and thought process are superhuman, how does he nutmeg people like that, as if it's just part of the control touch?
