THOSE WERE THE DAYS MY FRIENDS


Recommended Posts

Back in 1955 the old league cup section we played our greatest foes in the return tie after taking a four to one defeat at home so it was off the their place for the second game it started a bit earlier a quarter to seven cant remember why , any way we made one change and in four minutes Sammy Baird banged in the first of his two goals adding them to one each for Max Murray and Simpson we ran out winners and do you know Alex Scott rattled the woodwork twice in that game . 

Oh yes those were the days my friends .

 Niven , Caldow ,  Little .McColl , Young and Rae , Scott , Simpson and Murray , Baird and Hubbard .

Couple of hardy tradesmen in that team, Willie Rae and Johnny Little plus the rollicking Sammy Baird. The legendary Geordie Young , the young Caldow on his way to world-class and the best right half I ever saw, Ian McColl. A solid ‘keeper, two dazzling wingers and Billy Simpson and Maxie to rattle them in. A very god side.
