You might have expected Woodburn or Mccoll, both titans, to be seated next to Geordie Young but it’s a youthful Eric Caldow. Mr Struth could obviously foretell the future. Look at the second row. Pass quickly over Stanners and disregard Woodburn and McColl - we won’t see their like again - but Rae, Little and Prentice would transform the current team. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My father once said he’d have strapped Stanners to the front of a 25 pounder . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott7 6,055 Posted November 25 Share Posted November 25 This XI put on the best Scotland performance I ever saw at Hampden against England in 1962, an easy 2-0 victory. Alex Scott roasted his opponent but that wasn’t enough to get him into Rangers’ cup final team the following week. A young lad Willie Henderson was picked instead. The photo was taken at Love Street during training. I copied it from the outstandingly excellent website, Scottish Epistles Football Magazine. Brilliant photos. Highly recommended. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
