Great pictures. Looks like Denis Law in the background. Just looked at the Scotland side for the game. Some fine players. Captained by Rangers legend Eric Caldow. In the fixture at Wembley her broke his leg after a tackle by Bobby Smith. This was in the days of no substitutes. Scotland won the game in 1963 2-1 with both goals from Slim Jim. Made up for the result in 1961!

My grandfather went to many a Scotland v England match at Hampden and Wembley. From the early 1920s to the early 1970s.

Come to think of it, he actually might have at matches before that. Possibly the 1913 and / or 1914 matches !

Need to ask my Uncle the next time I visit him,if he remembers or has old family photos of these games.

Peter Bonetti during one of his seven appearances for Dundee United in the autumn of 1979. I had the privilege of meeting him before one of those games. I was an awestruck 12 year old.😀

The late Cyrille Regis.
He should have won many more full international caps for England. In my humble opinion.
