    First game at CP was about 96/97 i think

    Big Pierre scored and John Collins bent an absolute cracker of a free kick in the top corner...im sure it was against Partick Thistle

    1980 Cup Final for me against the huns. I though Celtic's hoops were so cool.

    Dont want to get too picky lads,but the 6-1 game was in 1972 and was the Scottish Cup Final.The 6-3 game was the LC Final 74-75 also against Hibs and Dixie Deans scored a hat trick in both games.

    me too. 79 was the year I got into club football after having got into football through Scotland in the world cup the year before. Thats the first game I can remember. The cup final was a much bigger deal then. There were TV specials for about 5 hours on BBC and STV (two of the three channels that existed in Scotland then). I remember special quiz shows involving footballers and for some reason I remember a cup final edition of Glen Michaels Cartoon Cavelcade. I was glued to the telly, big bag of loose sweets in hand. I even remember the sweets were hoarhounds (canny get them now) which gave you a sort mouth cause they had sharp edges!! I can till remember the George McCluskey deflection of the Danny McGrain shot sending Peter McCloy the wrong wall, like it was yesterday. Then the pitch invasion and a wee tim going up to the camera 'sell-tuck'. We were actually played of the park that day and got the rub of the green.

    I was 3 or 4.

    Me: "Dad, what football team do I support?"
    My Dad: "Who ever you want to."
    Me: "Who's the best?"
    My Dad: "Celtic."
    Me: "I'll support Celtic then."

    And that was me.
    Went to my first match against Dunfermline when I was 5 and we won 5-2.
