Ally MacLeod took charge of his first Dons match on this day 1975.

Dons managed a 2-1 win, with Jocky Scott scoring the winner.

Paul Hegarty scored for them.

 

Also on this day in 1961, a certain Neil Simpson was born.

Oh for a Simmie in our midfield now.

On this day in 1992, Aberdeen recorded their biggest-ever away win when they thrashed Partick Thistle 7-0 at Firhill. The scoreline was equalled on 31st March 2017 at Dens Park.

The game had been rescheduled after the original was abandoned. I believe it was the famous incident when a member of the Firhill ground staff tried to clear snow off the pitch with a broken broom.

Indeed it was .

I was at the abandoned game but couldn't make the rearranged one.

Was at both. Always felt that players were pissed off about way Thistle pissed about pretending to try and  clear the pitch and took the frustrations out on them in replay. 
 

Was at 7-0 over Dundee as well.

Was that the season we just about got relegated til we beat Hibs on the last day? He fairly turned it round the following season...
