Tomorrow marks 40 years since Alex Ferguson guided the Dons to Premier Division title glory. The championship was secured with an emphatic victory against already-relegated Hibs at Easter Road in the penultimate game of the season. Aberdeen had at one stage been miles behind rivals Celtic in the title race. Scanlon bagged the final goal, belting the ball into the net from the left side of the area after Watson’s volley had hit the bar. News filtered through from Love Street that Celtic had failed to beat St Mirren and for the first time in 25 years Aberdeen were champions.
