Luckily enough I knew 10, I didn't have much idea about the Scratching Shed and even though I NOW remember it was Tommy Steele, as I watched it on BBC telly that day, I'd forgotten it since.

BTW it's Stevenson, bud. Great quiz

Yes I realised afterwards it was Ujpest Dozsa, but my Hungarian spelling wasn't up to it

Was I really the only one on here that saw that game? You'd obviously remember the dense fog? Was anyone else on here at any of the games in that cup run?

Didn't miss many games back then and was there but I did miss the Anderlecht home game for some reason I can't recall.
Got to Paris for the final, was doing my apprenticeship at the time and was meant to be at college so just took the week off, my company fortunately didn't find out so I got paid
