Michael Kennedy is tonight basking in the glory of Scottish football's "biggest ever upset".His history-making Darvel side defeated giants Aberdeen in an incredible clash at Recreation Park, with punters backing them at a whopping 40/1.Jordan Kirkpatrick bagged the sole strike in the 1-0 victory, and 'Vale boss Kennedy reckons it eclipses Berwick Rangers defeating Rangers in 1967. “It’s a remarkable achievement.

Fair credit to the lads. All week they have been driving that message about having belief.“When you believe in yourself and have a real togetherness, then anything is achievable.“I told them that in my team talk and it all went to plan.

It was a perfect evening.“We rode our luck at times. Our keeper pulled off some good saves, but I thought in the spells when we had legs and energy we played some fantastic football.“That is our philosophy.

That is how we play every week. I didn’t want to change anything going into the game even though we respected Aberdeen’s status in terms of football in this country.“To a man, the players were outstanding."He continued: “I think this is probably the biggest shock ever and what a moment for the guys in their careers.“I have a special group of players, they have a remarkable bond and I have no doubt as they move through life this is something they will look back on with fond memories.“History makers.
