Steve Carrella Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 That's a hell of a group of players. MacKay grew about a foot when the whistle blew. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 (edited) 5 hours ago, Steve Carrella said: Gerry Baker scoring for St Mirren v Man City at Love Street. Keeper is Bert Trautmann. Paisley Charity Cup in 1960 which St Mirren lost 3-4... USA scoring past West Germany, still a fairly exotic concept then: albeit both were effectively British citizens. Denis Law - who scored brace - and Jackie Plenderleith also featured for City. Over at Tynecastle the Edinburgh XI were dispatching Chelsea by 4-3 in Allison Trophy, with Gerry's brother Joe - by then of course an England international - on the scoresheet. Either match and indeed narrow score be inconceivable today... who'd envisage both visitors being bought by wealthy foreigners 40yrs later. Worth adding Kilmarnock were off losing International Soccer League Final in New York by 2-0 to Bangu; while the inaugural Anglo-Franco-Scottish Friendship Cup ties were also played: Lens 0-4 Clyde Sedan 3-0 Celtic Toulouse 1-2 Motherwell Valenciennes 1-0 Dundee Edited June 15 by HibeeJibee 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megaspinnernet2 Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Zoltan Varga a great sight in Scottish football in early 1970's. Highly skilful player who scored great goals. Ended up Johan Cruyff's replacement at Ajax 1973. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mantis Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 (edited) Caley v Rangers, Scottish Cup, 1984. Billy Urquhart, Bobby Williamson, Davie Cooper, Bob Summers, Hamish MacDonald, Ian Redford. This is probably Williamson scoring no 4. The crowd going up Telford Street at the end Edited June 16 by The Mantis 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ended up Johan Cruyff's replacement at Ajax 1973. Saw him play at Pittodrie v Celtic. He was absolutely fantastic, scored both Aberdeen goals in a 2-3 defeat. Pretty sure Dalglish scored the winner. Still scarred with the image of a young girl getting carried out of the terracing with a bread knife sticking out of her head.
