Right season, wrong game. Fergie was sent off for brawling with Willie Young in the Scottish Cup tie at Pittodrie on 28 February 73. The Dons won 3-1 (Jim Forrest, Ian Purdie, Steve Murray), then we were knocked out in a home replay with the tim*******s after drawing 0-0 at the Glesca midden. Billy McNeill heider from a corner at the Beach End, just before the end. We somehow ended up in the main stand that night, and the ****ing goal was scored exactly in line with my seat. Faaaaaaack.

Fergie didn’t play in the 8-0 game, but Stuart Kennedy, Tam McMillan, and Jim Shirra did, as did Dennis Setterington who Eddie Turnbull had tried to sign several times from the hun*******s.
