Full Version: Youth International In Inverness In The Sixties

I attended a youth international between Scotland and England at Clach's ground in the mid sixties. I remember a very good Scottish player breaking his leg in the match and there was no substitutes. I think Scotland won and have a vague memory that David Nish played for England. It would be brilliant if anyone has any details of the game.

Magnificent effort Stu. That was the game. I was only eight. I wonder if that was Alex MacDonald.
