Good surprise Lyon away 0-3, other way Progres never seen that coming.
Progres away
I was under the impression we had a vastly improved playing squad. Little did I know I was about to be blown away by how shite some of them were.
Took me a while to convince myself that it actually happened.
Mate I share your pain. Both games from that Anglo Scottish Cup Qtr Final in Oct 1980. Don't know what to say. Only bit of light - The Blues (Chesterfield's) home programme was like a homage to the Rangers. They seemed to be genuinely over the moon to be on the same pitch as such a famous club.Chesterfield. F’n Chesterfield. I was living about 40 miles away and took the chance to see The Famous. I think this was the only time I ever regretted following Rangers. They were embarrassing.
. Near me in the main stand that night a guy offered a woman out for a square go as arguments about the team got out of hand.
Forgot about the programme. I’d been mouthing off to my work colleagues in Lincolnshire about The Famous and had to go into work the next day to face their laughter. Noticed the programme in the car footwell on the way home that night, crumpled it in a ball and launched it out of the window.Mate I share your pain.

I remember saying to friends after the Home leg against Progres which we won 1-0 that the tie was no where near over, from what I can remember they missed a couple of decent chances, added to that our new signings were absolutely pish.
Absolutely brutal trip back home from the second leg on a bus, said I would never do a bus euro trip again...then we drew them again 2 years later!!
Mate - it was so so so much better.That game wasnt much better

Nothing comes close to how bad that loss there was in the last 20 years
