For people of my age, (55), this is it
Born a week after the European Cup Semi, too young to fully appreciate the decent side of the 60's to mid 70's.
Not allowed to go to the only major trophy we have won in my lifetime, (weather, too young, etc
)
Sucked up the agonising goal difference relegation in 76 that was a huge turning point for all 3 clubs involved, (Aberdeen, us, DABS), to our detriment.
Watched in disbelief as teams like St Mirren, Clydebank improved past us to keep us down, then the frustration of the yo-yo years,
the unbelievable highs of the Bonetti era and the devastation of the 2 Administrations.
All while watching the ****iest team around go on a jammy run of trophy winning, taking advantage of the ugly sisters both being ****e at the same time, and some of europe's elite defences being inexplicably unable to deal with the skills of Eamon Bannon.
A fawning of them by the Glasgow orientated media over the years, Nevin, Spiers, every single clown on Sportsound/Sportscene, up to last nights a**e licking by Craigen etc; trumpeting them as the best thing since sliced bread.
So, hard work I think, for all of us resolutely following THE main team of the city for all these years.
Until around 9.33pm on 2nd May 2016 of course; who will ever forget the day/time things got a whole lot sweeter.
Sweeter still after last night; stay down and die is my preferred outcome now; but if the status quo has to last a wee bit longer, that'll have to do.
I've probably been harsh on the forum recently about negativity, criticism of players/NM, that's why I've not really posted in the DFC section so much;
given that this is the best time to be a Dee since I was born , I don't get the disgruntlement, but I appreciate people are different.
BUT, last night should make us all happy; a perfectly DESERVED and well EARNED result and outcome for the DABS.
