A goal for Ernie Winchester makes it 1-1 in the Scottish Summer Cup Final Replay. That is the first Dons game that I can say for certain I was at. I know my dad had taken me to games before then, but I've no idea which ones. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully I didn't know then that it would only be the first of countless 'disasters for Scotland' that would last the rest of my life. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a reason the likes of Bobby Lennox, Jimmy Johnstone etc weren't in that squad? Makes you wonder how much better Scotland could have done back then if we had actually played our best players. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won one, Drew one, Lost two. Willie Henderson played against England in 63, 64, 65 & 69. Won two, Drew one, Lost one. I do agree that Lennox should have played more for Scotland, however.

No recollection of him playing for us at all, and can’t find any match that he played in our records. We are talking about Gerry Neef, the goalie? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wonder where he would play ? being primarily right footed . We were not short of brilliant ( left ) wingers then ; Eddie Gray , Charlie Cooke , Willie Johnston 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant Bob, that's why we love P & B.
