I was at that game as well. Absolutely mobbed as you say. Was that the game when Gordon Smith smashed a shot which bounced back down and just crossed the line? The Thistle players stating that it hadn’t crossed the line, when the ref went to consult his linesman I noticed that Brian Whittaker (remember him? I sure that he has passed away), anyway he had the ball in his hand talking to Alan Rough, so it would have been a penalty to Rangers...anyway it didn’t matter as the goal was given.
Yeah the Thistle players were adamant the ball hadn't crossed the line (as you would expect from any side when it is such a close call).
