Mario Kempes, some striker.

Scotland 1-3 Argentina .

A footballing lesson handed out by Argentina and by this youngster called Diego Maradona in particular.

AC v Inter Milan from 1915 !                                    And AC v Inter from 1969/70.

Neither team yet playing in colour in 1969/70 !

A fine player. A cult hero at Rangers. Met and married a Scottish lass when he lived in Glasgow.

A bit different. One of the funniest scenes I've seen in a film.

 

The funniest football scene I have seen was in a Norman Wisdom film,  Up in the World.

Absolute hilarious as he plays against the Lord of the Manor's team as a newbie and not understanding the unwritten rules.

 

Kevin Keegan with hjs new Hamburg team mates. Summer 1977.

Porridge, the film in 1979. Football match in Slade Prison. Mr MacKay is the ref.   Prisoner escapes during the match !

That was one of the better episodes.

If I remember correctly that's the one where they try to get back into prison after escaping without getting caught.

I remember a sketch where a civilian looks at them strangely as Fletcher pretends to be Godber's trainer on a country lane to avoid detection.

Yeah that's the one,

Steve Finnieston playing for Sheff Utd in 1979. Topps card.

Doesn't seem right still,seeing him playing for any other team bar us.

Love St, Paisley. former home of St Mirren.

I thought they were playing QPR in this picture and this was 'the famous QPR away support'.

The ground was demolished af ew years ago and now a new housing estate sits here.

Pele and Santos playing Sheff Wed in 1972 !

Wednesday 23rd Feb 1972, And the kick-off time for that friendly was 2.30pm !

The Scotland squad for the 1982 World Cup. Some fine players. Went 1-0 up against Brazil through a great goal by David Narey and ended up losing 4-1.

Gianluigi knew that 'Blue is the colour'...

I remember a quote from this Brazil 1982 game.

Graeme Souness: We annoyed them by scoring first !"

 

Brazil strolled to a 4-1 win that June 1982 night v Scotland. It could easily have been 6 or 7 -1.

And a very great Brazil side. With players such as Zico and Socrates. Probably the best Brazilian side since the one in 1970.

1966. Some great commentators here. Modern day commentators could learn a lot from these guys.

We won the penalty shootout against Uruguay.

Agreed. They were some side to watch, even if they did lose to eventual winners Italy.

The Scotland team which beat England 3-2 at Wembley in 1967. Eddie on the left and the legendary Jim Baxter, 3rd from the right. The number 9 may be Jim McCalliog who played for us in the early to mid sixties.

Ah, the league ladders which used to come with football magazines.
