The commentator does exactly what is right when goals are scored: Lets us hear the crowd cheering. Instead of speaking right away so that we as viewers don't feel the atmosphere in the stadium. Many of today's commentators could learn from that.

From the late 1950s BBC Scotland was guilty of cutting in and ruined the atmosphere with a sound drop along with the commentary team sounding like they had a heavy cold with a clothes peg on their nose. My father and I loved Kenneth Wolstenholme. The typical scene we were enjoying the full atmosphere with BBC England just as the teams are appearing SSSHOOOOCLICKNOCKKNOCKCLACK. Muffle Snuffle.¹ When STV covered a game they missed the teams coming out and the K .O. In recent years TV and radio coverage is a collection of experts of clichés who say all that can be said about a game repeatedly. All I want is for silence from the commentary team and the studio Before the teams appear until K .O . Another annoyance are the Teams selection accross the screen. Years ago it was down the side of the screen or transparent both with just the right amount of time to see , hear and absorb. Ps I have gone off most of football; In recent years. A lot of the athletes in most sports are puffed up with pride and lack humility Rant; A Grumpy Auld man.

These days there would be an outcry at that remark.

I was at this game - one of the best days of my life. I was 14 and my dad considered me old enough to take along for the first time. Sunny London was a sea of tartan that day and we were stood behind the goal where King Kenny scored what turned out to be the winner and I remember being scared that the whole stand was gonna come down when Scotland scored - it was literally rocking underfoot! Outside after the game people were walking round with huge squares of Wembley turf on their heads and one guy ripped us off a big chunk and gave it to my dad who left it on the Tube! The next morning he cut a square of turf from our front lawn, painted a white spot on it and took it to the pub and told all his English mates that it was the penalty spot near from which Kenny knocked in the winner! They were raging! England Scotland was life and death in those days. Still is really....

England doesn't even rule itself and hasn't done since 1707. England would have ruled Scotland if it managed to annex it like Wales and Ireland, but it never. Hence the Acts of Union being about the unification of the Scottish and English kingdoms under one monarchy and government. Maybe one day England will have it's independence, too, just like Scotland.

Gordon McQueen was a bloody brilliant footballer.

These were always huge games back then because there was so few live games on telly back then. Remember watching this with the whole family just like cup final day.

Almost like a home game for Scotland.

That build-up play for the second Scottish goal *really was* masterclass!

Always great to see big Gordie McQueen score. Always great when Revie got beaten.

My brother was there...and tells me, after the match went to a strip club in soho, he was 16 yo With a crowd including his older brother and workmates, place was packed, the girl came out and posed, but could only repose after the light wrnt out, due to solo laws... The crowd complained to the manager, if no im improvement you could have a riot on your hands, lights on and full striptease ensued, the scots cheered lifted there kilts exposing themselves to her and one another, after which the lassie said it was the best fun she ever had stripping, the scots passed a hat and she made a fortune...my brother said it was the first time he seen a naked woman and what was under an aroused scotsmans kilt ! Priceles, love peace and respect to scots and english brothers...those were the days !

Looks like the Bay City Rollers fan club on a day out.

Still remember watching this at 6 years old and being mesmerised at the pitch invasion 😅😅😅

Goalkeepers with no gloves. I fucking love it.

What a beautiful jersey this one that the Scotish team is wearing.

1998 was the last time they qualified for a tournament and they still show england fans up everywhere they go. Tartan Army are considered the best international fans in the world. English fans just get pished up on their special brew and fosters and start fights everywhere! Better yet, get kicked to their arse most the time! this is coming from a Welshman as well!

We enjoyed that so much we decided to take some of the pitch & anything else back home!

I had no chance to avoid getting on to the pitch, with the surge of supporters behind me. When on the pitch, I was less than 20 feet away from the goals when they snapped. I miss the home Internationals a lot. I walked all the way back to central London with fellow Scots. I was exhausted and was gigging that evening at Elephant and Castle in a club called "The Bouncing Ball" ironically . It was quite a day.

Such respectful dialogue afterwards as well. Gentlemen.

God this was when we Scots had players who wanted to play for the shirt.Jimmy Hill here only applauding the Scottish team because they were better. Would love those times to come back again!

this the best away support scotland have ever taken to wembley is that right ? what was the smallest up until 89 when they scrapped it ?

I remember this Scotland quite well. Probably, the best Caledonian team of all times. Very next year, due to lack of discipline, it would collapse. Although they beat Holland in a superbly exciting game, by goals difference the dutch passed to the zone B of next round.

Fantastic goal by big Gordon.

I wasn't alive for this but as a Welshman we never got much success (but one Wembley win!) in the 70s....however as a man with Scottish blood I love this! The post match celebrations show true passion, much better than today when you just get people clapping obediently in their seat!

In those days, these two nations were more evenly matched. Scotland had some great players, most of them played in the English Division One (pre-premiership). Over the last 20 odd years, England have dominated the results in this fixture against the "Auld Enemy". The pitch invasion was unforgiveable and was probably the one of reasons why the Home Internationals were abolished?:
