Thank you Kidd, from a Celtic supporter

[@doubledee7517]

I loved that Dundee team I was there that day and never tire of seeing g it especially Albert's 2nd goal. Great stuff !! 😃

[@The_Macaroon]

Great stuff - happy days - big crowds and quality players in both teams - but Albert Kidd's second goal WOW!

[@MartynJoseph1970]

Happy Albert Kidd Day

[@Gonzoidzz]

Arise sir albert Kidd.

[@theflyintheointment]

erm, appreciate the sentiment, and thank you Albert Kidd 'n' that, but not sure 'Arise Sir Albert Kidd' really fits in with our, ahem, general view of things.......

[@jmyjnstn67]

God Bless Albert Kidd. Love St '86 is still my favourite Celtic game ever.

[@jamescampsie4781]

as a HIBERNIAN supporter my sides are sore with laughter as Jambo's cry arise sir Albert Kidd 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

Chucking it in the last game of the season, surely not the bigliest team in all of gorgieland!!😂😂

Thank you Sir Albert Kidd...Still puts a big smile on my face this result 31 yrs later lol

[@pogolswood]

What a wonderful afternoon. I had been preparing for a quiet night, just keeping out the way. Then Albert Kidd changed all my plans. What a hoolly that night.

[@igolfjtweetler4097]

Albert we love you.

[@stmadoesboy]

Great memories - and the first time ever that I had a line up with the bookies - walking back down the Hilltown, counting the pound notes - good times....good times!

[@MrCravat]

I never tire of this comedy ....MANY THANKS

[@rabbieburns2501]

Made a few GIFS from this. Superb! Forgot just how good that 2nd goal was .. destroyed them! Legend!

[@kevincarr4571]

Back here reliving it in 2021 🍀 thank you Albert 👌

[@MrMeadfoot]

Thank you for playing your part Bomber !!!

[@magpie1892]

I never tire of watching this. Still crying, Jambos?

[@langdale55]

After this, Albert Kidd went on to make more than 300 appearances alongside Tommy Cannon in The Cannon and Ball Show. Great team!

[@Sunburst75]

Hearts lost 5 of their 1st 8 games that season and were near the bottom and 9pts behind Celtic at that stage. It was 2pts for a win then so 9pts was a big gap. They then went 27 games undefeated until they lost on the last day to Dundee and lost the League on goal difference. It was unbelievable to go on a 27 game unbeaten run and not win the League, but the 9pts deficit they conceded at the start to Celtic ultimately cost them. They also didn't lose to Celtic once, they won 1 and drew the other 3. They also beat Rangers 3 times and lost only 1. The Old Firm took only 5pts from 16 against them yet they still lost the league.

[@earthstars9195]

nice info

[@potkettle8185]

mmm not the 2-0 defeat to Dundee?

[@pato2200]

Celtic lost three in a row at Christmas to Aberdeen (twice) and Dundee utd

[@dhhac8477]

Well said it's always tough to lose a league on goal difference they deserved to win the league imo

[@Sunburst75]

@@dhhac8477 Definitely did. There hasn't been a league winner outside Glasgow since. Nobody under 40 has ever even witnessed that sadly. Scottish football was brilliant in the early-mid 80s because Aberdeen and Dundee United won leagues and cups and regularly horsed Rangers and Celtic, often in Glasgow too. Miller, McLeish, Strachan, Eric Black, Stuart Kennedy, Dave Narey, Paul Sturrock, Kevin Gallacher, Maurice Malpas. Those were great times for Scottish football. Aberdeen winning the Cup Winners Cup v. R.Madrid and Dundee Utd winning in Barcelona to knock them out the UEFA Cup are actually the 2 greatest results in Scottish club football history when you consider the resources of our 2 teams against 2 of the biggest and richest clubs in the world.

[@ThePiratebhoy]

Albert Kidd Celtic Legend :)

[@gavinreid8937]

As far as I can remember , it wasn't long after that Mr Souness arrived at Rangers ensuring Hearts if anybody else never got a sniff again.

[@guymer72]

i remember listening to that game on the radio and as a celtic fan my freinds and i were celebrating all day, great day in 86, mon the hoops

[@gab99]

away from all the Jambo heart ache stuff the second is a fantastic goal. Kidd picked that ball up in his own half, skinned a couple of opponents, played a perfect give and go 1-2 and first timed it past the keeper! great goal

[@petermann2288]

A young Colin Hendry Breavheart came on as sub that day. What a career he made for himself. Once fae Keith always fae Keith.

[@PaulDavis-qm7to]

I was at Love St. Unforgettable.

this is probably the best video on youtube . how albert kidd never got a knighthood for that performance il never know haw haw

Sitting in a pub in Adelaide South Australia owned by Albert Kidd next to the man himself having a great laugh ( not specifically at Hearts mind)

Rumour has it Craig Levein bottled out of playing in the match and was shitting himself in the toilets 😂😂😂

[@leehamill4445]

Back for my annual viewing. My earliest memory of being a Celtic fan. I think the great Albert Kidd emigrated to Australia and came back to Scotland a few years back and Sandy Clarke was still raging and told him to f*ck off 😂.

[@rambojp73]

Albert got hibs player of the year award that year😁no joke! Thanks Albert fae a Celtic fan 👊🇮🇪🍾🍺🇮🇪

How raging wiz archie macpherson when he realized Celtic won the league, priceless

[@suzannejane10]

He wasn't a hun by any means.

[@etontrifle]

I think you mean when Hertz "lost" the league. ;)

[@alanknotts1844]

Archie was a close friend of Jock Stein. Legendary commentator

[@Scottish_TV_Gold]

I did cry but the joys of 1998 and 2006 have helped to ease the pain.

[@cheesyfeet1976]

only archie macpherson could give us a lesson in mythology whilst opening the commentry for a football game. enjoyable and entertaining game and you cant help but laugh at the third division team feeder club. kidds 2nd goal would have graced any league in the world. up there with archie gemmells. class.

[@kennycfc8842]

What a day 😆😆😆 arise sir Albert Kidd 🍀🍀🍀

[@TheLexyboy]

i was feeling a bit gutted that Celtic lost the league yesterday, so im watching this to cheer myself up! You know what? Its working! The feeling at Love street when the Hearts score was coming through was one of the best ive ever known.

Anybody but hearts or rangers can't feel sorry them 2 horrible clubs

[@jbhoy80]

happy Albert Kidd day 2016

[@MrHibsboy]

Tremendous footage - the Dundee fans singing "So F&cking Easy" was hilarious !

[@MegaDeansy]

The best thing about this deliriously happy & historic day was that the outcome was NOT a shock !. The only ones who thought heartx were going to emerge triumphant was those muppets themselves !. Pedro Kane, Jimmy Burns, Stoogs D etc - boy, did we have ourselves a day that day - I just hope that someday someone u/loads the video of our game v Dundee Utd at Easter Road as the scenes at Sir Albert's 1st goal were incredible !. They best us 1-2 that day yet you'd have thought WE'D win the league !

[@daviemckiernan5645]

Nearly forgot what a cracking goal sir alberts 2nd goal wiz GGTTH

that was a saturday in may 1986. that was the day that your nightmare began.... hail hail

No Jimi.... YOUR nightmare began. You won about 5 titles in the next 20 years and became an utter irrelevance off the pitch. So if Hearts had a nightmare, you dreamed the same dream pal

[@mathewness7649]

What was the score

[@BillDFC]

I felt sorry for them that day,after all,the same happened to us on the last day of the season in 1949 when we only needed a point at Falkirk to win the league. We lost 4-1.

[@BillDFC]

The same happened to Dundee in 1949 when we only needed a draw against Falkirk to win the league.We lost 4-1 at Brockville and Rangers snatched the championship.

[@dvdstv]

Remember it like yesterday !

[@therealdeal9698]

Best thing about it is “they “ all thought it was Walter Kidd that scored

[@mentalhibees]

'mon the albert!!

[@MARTINHENDERSONNLTF]

The wee teams greatest moment, out with building floodlights. FTh, Always in our Shadow..

[@rossharper486]

An Edinburgh team goes into a game as favourites, just needing to avoid defeat to win silverware for the first time in years, having had good results against both Old Firm clubs. Their opponents are a team who have survived into the present day despite two administrations. At half-time the score is 0-0. In the second half the Edinburgh team concedes two goals, the second goal being scored by a player who runs half the length of the pitch before scoring. As a result Davie Hay's team wins the silverware. The last day of the league season in 1986? Or the 2004 League Cup Final?

[@Sparta2310]

Ross Harper Very clever indeed Ross

[@JTT2505]

John Brown must have been delighted his team won. 😂

[@PTS82]

Gotta love last day drama. This, and Celtics collapse at Motherwell in ‘05 were hilarious

[@PTS82]

David Broadley agreed! I’m a Hibs fan so have unfortunately have never seen my team involved in a title race (except for indirectly) though I did enjoy 1986 for obvious reasons!

[@DavidBroadley-tw7ks]

Yes like celtic snatching the title in 79 with 10 men rangers only needed a draw and lead 1 2

[@davedoogan6650]

I was at love street that day, i must say i did have pity for the hearts fans

[@MikeyHibee]

Arise Sir Albert Kidd.

[@bobmorrice]

funny and satisfying for so many reasons being a 10 year old at school in leith and watching friends change form hib to hearts fans a family in my street who'd showed no interest in football suddeenly turning into lifelong passionate hearts fans in a matter of weeks hearts players offically releasing a single two weeks before this with a b side melody of "championees" and "hullo,hullo,we are the gorgie boys"(upto our knees in hibees blood) god bless albert kidd

[@rossforsyth2760]

Heartsed it!

[@aussiedon8]

Love it Love it Love it!! This sums up Hearts over their entire existance. Sometimes the bridesmaid, never the bride and supporters who very bad losers.

[@IMPERIALSTORMTROOPER]

5.23 :) god bless

[@foolsgold953]

quality :)

[@sidesporran2000]

A great season, if only it happened now with a team outside Glasgow! The Dons should have won the treble that year though!

[@peterdougie]

i remeber this game very well my name is peter mcdowell

[@BillDFC]

In season '64-'65 Dundee also beat Hearts 7-1 at Tynecastle which cost them the league title which kilmarnock won on goal average.

[@maconescotland8996]

Killie winning 2-0 at Tynecastle on the final day of the league season cost Hearts the league.

[@DavidBroadley-tw7ks]

Yes they had to win 0 2 and they did just that in 65 I think that wud have been worse for hearts blowing it on there own back yard just like arsenal snatching the title having to win 0 2 on the last day in 89
