The Who - Anyway Anyhow Anywhere

Great result for the Mariners in the AFC Inter-zone Playoff Final First Leg last night. They drew 1-1 away to Abdysh-Ata Kant in Bishkek, Kyrgyz Republic last night. Read somewhere it took them 24 hours to get there. Return leg is in Gosford on 24th. The winner meets the West Asian zone winner in the Final. Mariners had an A-League game in Melbourne against Western United last Saturday and are at home to Adelaide United on Sunday.

That was Harold.

This is from a 1950 programme of a game between Western Australia and an Australian XI on their return from a Southern African tour. The WA had a quite a few Scots in their squad.

Read an obituary about Ron Lord who was Australia’s goalie in the 1950’s. He took over from Norman Conquest after Australia lost 1-13 and 0-17 to an England XI in 1951. Seemed to have improved things as they only lost 1-4, 1-6 and 0-5 in the other “Tests”. Found links to some programmes on ozfootball.net and discovered a Scottish player called Tom Jack ex Third Lanark and Dunfermline Athletic played in a few of the games against England and later on twice captained Australia. He is in the picture below probably playing for the Victoria against England in one of two games at the MCG as the Australia v England game in Melbourne was at Richmond Cricket Ground. Jackie Sewell had been transferred from Notts County to Sheffield Wednesday earlier that year for a record English transfer fee of £34,500. Tom Jack’s pen picture is from the game v England in Brisbane and the Scottish “ups and downs” from the game in Adelaide.

Paul Kelly & the Coloured Girls - Before Too Long

This is from the Evening Telegraph of Monday 18 April 1910. It has a report and a report and a couple of grainy pics of the Dundee 0 Clyde 0 Scottish Cup Final Replay but quite a few bits about other games on the Saturday. I’ve included the Dee Archive link in case it’s too difficult to read. https://www.deearchive.co.uk/matchdetails.php?id=570

Just above that hoarding in there are some people up a tree that doesn’t look as safe as some on other trees. Might just be the quality of picture playing tricks.

Jesse Fuller - San Francisco Bay Blues

Copied the English picture from Wikipedia page about that Final. Here is a film of a Preston North End v Aston Villa game in 1905 where you can only tell the keeper by their cap. The PNE goalie is probably Peter McBride who was from Ayr and played played over 400 games for PNE between 1896 and 1912. He also played 6 times for Scotland.

Cricketer Derek Underwood will be under wood and earth. Out for 78. https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/cricket/breaking-derek-underwood-dead-england-32590457
