Slim Jim doesn't look so slim. Must have come from running a pub! This was at a midweek game v Dundee Utd in early May 1976. Before kick off, there was a short game between the veterans of the 1949 and 1964 Treble winning sides. The then current Rangers side had just completed the Treble in 1975/76.

He was also a very good sweeper with Hearts at the end of his career. His reading of the game was just class. A gentleman off the pitch too.

His reading of the game was just class. A gentleman off the pitch too. A shame that he is no longer with us. It would have been great for Sandy to have seen the 'Gers win title 55. A player who could play anywhere in defence and in his early career midfield and even centre-forward at one stage.

Pat Nevin in his new book, on Sandy Jardine. ‘He refers fondly to Sandy Jardine, then at Hearts, taking him aside after a match at Shawfield when the great Scottish defender had dominated the spindly winger.’ Pat was in his last season at Clyde. 'He told me what I should have done in the game,' says Nevin. 'I asked him why he was being so kind. 'He just told me that he was retiring and so wouldn't play against me again. He added that he thought I would be off to England soon.'

May 25, 20215 yr From the England v Scotland game at Wembley in 1963. England's Bobby Smith and Scotland's Eric Caldow were both injured early on. Caldow broke his leg and Smith returned after treatment. This was before substitutes so Scotland played about 85 minutes of the match with ten men but still won 2-1. Both of Scotland's goals were scored by Jim Baxter one of four Rangers players in the side. The others being Caldow, Davie Wilson and Willie Henderson. The four were part of the great Rangers side of the early sixties. Edited May 25, 20215 yr by Boyne
