Not sure how many soccer fans we have on here, but forty years ago today my team, Aberdeen Football Club, defeated Real Madrid in the European Cup Winners Cup final.
This momentus event took place in the beautiful city of Goteburg, Sweden.
Aberdeen are, were and remain, a small team from the North East of Scotland.
Real Madrid?
A holly bigger entity.
We were good, by Christ we were good, we were managed by the best ever, Sir Alexander Ferguson.
The first time I'd travelled abroad, hell, the first time I'd flown.
To this day, Aberdeen remain the last side to defeat Real Madrid in a European Final.
God bless them all, those that have been called home in the last forty years and those still with us.
Bliss it was in that dawn to be alive, but to be young was very heaven.
