Gonzo79 13,609 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 My first trip to Hampden, Cooper scored that free kick and Durrant scored the winning penalty... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacK1950 2,231 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Enjoyed watching that forgot how good Durrant really was. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 5,161 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 The velocity of Cooper’s free-kick appeared to increase with distance travelled defying the laws of physics Archetypal Durrant finish for the second goal. How often did we see that? It used to be good fun to make fun of Leighton but swop ‘keepers for the day and that game doesn’t go to extra time. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Durrant was my favourite player then. We could do with a smidgen of his guile just now. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leighton was supposed to have said to Davie he almost got his hand to ot and coop said aye on the way back out the goal , a grand free kick 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Gascoigne talking about when he played for England U21's against Scotland and he came up against this kid he hadnt heard of (obviously Durrant) and said that he couldnt get a kick all game - said Durrant was a far better player than himself at that age. Durrant was special. Still angers me that Aberdeen fans glorify the tackle that ruined a Scottish generational talent. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
