I'm a Celtic supporter, but was a student in Aberdeen when Fergie was there and used to go and watch them. They were an absolutely marvellous side. I can't believe it was 40 years ago. Great seeing these two reminisce.
How was football back then?
As a Bluenose this was fckn superb, Superb manager, superb players & dare I say it, superb fans of that most excellent era in the history of Aberdeen FC. 🙏🏻
I was a teenager following the reds in that period. The fans werent great! This was one of Europes top teams for 4/5 years, playing on front of half empty stadiums! Our support to hampden was poor. Nowadays we take 20k back then we took 12/14k max! We took 40k to hampden in 2014.Thats what this team should have been getting
This is by far fergie's greatest achievement.
As a Dons fan i always love seeing the greats talk about the glory days. I was a wee 6 year old when we won the title in 1980, and as the 80's progressed i just believed the Dons winning trophies was the norm, and would continue for ever. The memories Fergies Dons gave me back then are imprinted, they were great days, unbelievable.
The only Scottish team with two European honours to our name.
The last club to have beaten Real Madrid in a European Final.
The last team outwith the Old Firm to win the title.
The only team outwith the Old Firm to win three Scottish Cups in a row.
sadly they don't have many scots players of the calibre of those guys nowadays :(
Rangers fan here, they were brilliant, really special, one of the best Scottish teams of any era, to dominate the Old Firm takes some doing in Scotland.
yeh, im the same, one of the best aberdeen teams in years, just shows how things have changed through the years.
If Fergie hadn't left to manage Man Utd they'd have won even more trophies in Scotland. Back then teams hated going Aberdeen to play them as Fergie broke the Celtic/Rangers stranglehold.
Had rangers not won league again before he left ??
I'm a Don's fan. I don't think we would have won much. Rangers money changed everything
@@robertmclean3612 no. 86 celtic won it instead of hearts on last day. 84 and 85 was aberdeen
The greatest there was , the greatest there is and the greatest there ever will be SIR ALEX FERGUSON.
because of the Premier league and the dominance it's had over the world since it began nobody talks about what Sir Alex did before Manchester United.. he broke the Celtic and Rangers dominance in Scotland and took Aberdeen to European glory also
@@loganandchaseserver260 as he deserves to rangers did him dirty
Diffently,
Because of the Premier league and the dominance it's had over the world since it began nobody talks about what Sir Alex did before Manchester United.. he broke the Celtic and Rangers dominance in Scotland and took Aberdeen to European glory also. its like Skoke City winning winning the Europa League this day an age
amazing to see coverage of my team 🔴⚪️🔴
Who?
@@Adam-de1gp what?
@@Adam-de1gp not surprising to see someone english with no knowledge about history
Same!
Aye keep watching and remembering Thomas...because your team has done nowt since 😄😂
Two icons of Scottish football. Being from England we didn't get to see much Scottish football back then but I do remember running home from footy training to see this legendary game. I doubt we'll ever see a team of (pretty much) all Scottish players win a major European trophy again. Alex Ferguson is the greatest manager of all time.
just wish tattie was still here for the anniversary
Really like this mini-series, good to see teams other than the OF represented too. Really interesting watching these and appreciating the teams of old and the achievements they did.
Celtic fan but that was brilliant. Well done BT
Back in a time when everyone had a similar budget and money hadnt ruined the game. Willie Miller was world class yet remained at the Dons for his entire career. Changed days.
Legends!
Born 11/05/83. Stand Free
Fabulous watch
Luv these talks magic
My team 🔴⚪️
Just brilliant great day’s STAND FREE 🇦🇹🇦🇹🇦🇹
The library looks same as "sidemen silent library"
Can’t wait to see players in the current squad get interviewed about the moments we’ve already lived in 40 years 😂
cant wait for the one about the sevco team that won the Petrofac cup, great days
@@andrewjohnston2850 Or the Darvel result 👍
@@johnblack9298 its all history mate, 120 years of history
Very amusing interview, aside from the incredible success of Aberdeen FC. Great days!
SAF❤️
Alex Fergie Ferguson The Best Manager Ever
Alex Ferguson The Best Ever Man And A Rangers Man
A rangers man sickend by the bigotry of his club, pity there is not more like him
STAND FREE
I must say, Gordon has a fine heed a hair
Real Madrid too ezzzz
Sidemen silent library
I think it's brilliant that a 3rd world country like Scotland had Fergie managing a club team like Aberdeen.
And ur a clown
3rd world country??? We literally owned a 3rd of the world along with the rest of the British Empire🤣
@@matthewthomson6126 Don't feed him.
@@lukebarry7878 It wasn't crushed it became the Commonwealth of Nations. Britain is the greatest country in the world today because of what we managed to build. And Great Britain wouldn't even exist without Scotland😂
@@lukebarry7878 It's not "scotchmen" it's Scotsmen and yes we are Scottish and British. Name a country better than Great Britain then tell me why it is
