Iain Dowie has a degree in something seriously scientific like Aeronautical Engineering. It came as a bit of a surprise when I first heard that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a weird Nazi flag, like they've reversed the red and the white.

Dundee Hibernian Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 The Methil player is Jimmy Bonthrone, who went on to play for Dundee and latterly Stirling Albion before managing East Fife in the 1960s. Bobby Henderson was signed by Dundee from Partick Thistle. Both players won the League Cup with the clubs they are playing for in the photograph. The photograph is from a 1952 league match at Bayview. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurkst Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 (edited) Goalkeeper Campbell Forsyth, who sadly left us at the weekend aged 86, jogs alongside matchwinner Alan Gilzean on a lap of honour following his international debut, a 1-0 victory over England at Hampden in 1964. Campbell would go on to pick up a league championship medal with Kilmarnock the following season, although injury ruled him out of the title decider at Tynecastle. Unfortunately injury had also robbed him of a Scottish Cup medal with St Mirren in 1959. In a bizarre bit of trivia he would go on to concede the only goal Peter Shilton scored in his long career, playing for Southampton against Leicester City in 1967.

He was from 'The Plean', and an acquaintance of some of my family, thus the autograph I still have below, saved but now spoiled by the Sellotape. Think he got all of his caps while at Rugby Park, before leaving for The Dell. Southampton had a fondness for Scottish keepers around that time, with Eric Martin and Sandy Davie at the club around that period. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flybhoy Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 A young Willie Miller watches Bobby Lennox fire a shot at goal at Celtic Park in 1975, Danny McGrain is in the background and I think the other Aberdeen player is Arthur Graham. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
