Certainly outside of major tournament finals I can't recall Scotland ever using squad numbers or names on the backs of the shirts before the Northern Ireland game. Not sure if that was a one off or a sign of things to come.
Scotland were one of the first teams to actually use players names on the back of the shirts in the late 70's early 80's. However, I am sure FIFA or UEFA put the bosch on that and asked us to remove them. I certainly recall Scotland playing matches around about this time, for a few games at least, with the names on them
'outwith' major tournaments.
