I think it may actually be that game Joey.
I guess the players were just tired and disappointed we didnt win before pens.
I was there as well.
Good old Andy Rankin
Great night

....agree, I was there too and the cutting says ‘before’ the shoot out. It was the end of extra-time and the players were exhausted. As you say, Andy Rankin in the background is the key.
 

With Beattie the stand out player, excellent.
Have to agree with you there Cameron, Kevin Beatie was a top class player and a very quick one. Bobby Robson tells a story about the New Year’s Day Powderhall Sprint, Robson entered Beattie, all the players and Robson bet on him and half way through he looked like winning hands down. At that point, however, his wedding tackle popped out of the leg of his ‘very short’ shorts, which were the fashion back in 1970. Naturally he made efforts to readjust and by the time he was settled he had lost the race and they had all lost their money.
