Looks like Wallace and Greig are having a chat. What a great shirt. One of my favourites. Ah, for the days when shirts only had club badges.

It is. At the end of that season, Stewart Kennedy had a nightmare at Wembley when England beat Scotland 5-1. Derek Parlane in the top row. He went to Leeds and I don't think it was a success for him.

No Leeds wasn’t a success for Derek Parlane. He then moved to Man City, where I’m sure he played against us in that season.
He became a rep for Reebok after he finished playing.

I think so.  Found this about Corporal Angus. He had played for Celtic.

What a brave man.

Very much so. I've visited a number of military museums over the years and never fail to be moved when I read the citations of those who have been given awards, A few weeks ago I went to the Imperial War Museum and visited the room where there is the collection of Victoria and George Crosses. Incredibly brave men and women. The VC and GC Association is. for me, the greatest group of people in the world. But the recipients will only say that they were doing their jobs.

1966

In the 297 games that Paolo Maldini and Franco Baresi played together.

They kept 141 clean sheets and conceded only 221 goals.   Legends.

John Wark  scoring v England at Wembley in May 1979. (He’d hit the woodwork 3 times (!)  in the 1978 FA Cup Final for a Ipswich v Arsenal.)      England won this match 3-1. The late Ray Clemence, seen in picture, made a world class save at 1-0 Scotland.

Scotland v Brazil at Hampden Park in 1966. The score was 1-1. Pele is saying: "I want to play for Scotland."

Charlie Cooke played in the game.
