Remind me. Brian Hewson?

It truly was. Beautifully balanced. Did you ever watch a better non-Rangers Scottish side than that? Smith already had league medals at Hibs and Hearts but less well known Wishart also had one 1955 at Aberdeen.

Correct. He also played against Wolves for Blackburn Rovers in the 1960 FA Cup final. Rovers lost to the Wanderers 0-3.

Nat Lofthouse, maybe the toughest of them all, waiting at the pithead to board the Bolton Wanderers ‘bus for an away game.

Another battling English centre forward Jackie Milburn.

Stan Mortensen. Score three to win the FA Cup and no one remembers you.

Booooooooooooooo!

Wolves and Liverpool were just about safely through and then the world turned upside down in the last minutes. Chap called Amad Diallo scored in extra time to equalise then got the winner a minute later. Bring him home. EDIT. Got carried away. He only scored the winner. Not good enough. Rashford got the et equaliser.

The OT pitch was like Wembley in May.

United sensational for fifteen minutes, 1-0, Liverpool dreadful for forty then it all changed. 2-1 to the scousers at HT.

What a day. Wolves v Coventry, Wales v Italy, a bit of Ireland v Scotland, Manchester City v Newcastle and now France v England. Best of all, Mrs 7 is working so peace to watch it all.

One of the most surprising except maybe Southampton, Wimbledon, Sunderland and Birmingham City. So not all that surprising really.

In the quarter finals, Wolverhampton Wanderers 2, Coventry City 3. Coventry led 1-0 until the last ten minutes. Wolves scored twice and packed their defence but lost two goals in added time. Lesson: do your defending in the opponents’ half, not your own.

Jimmy Gordon of the Rangers. He’s the stalwart chosen by Maryhill BC to feature in their banner.

The media fawned over Dick Advocaat until they discovered that he wasn’t going to fawn over them and possibly worse, was going to be very successful.

I think your dad could be right.

Could be. Better than the 1962 side? Maybe.

Juan Fangio posing for the camera in a F1 winning Maserati.

Third of the thirties Ms, Meiklejohn, Morton and Bob McPhail, referred to by McCoist as “Mr McPhail”. McPhail’s book is worth a look.

David Meiklejohn, another of the great captains.

On the occasions when Beale did pick Sterling, I don’t remember much praise for him here.

Shave the beard and that’s Bobby Shearer.

The truly great R. C. Hamilton, Elgin City, Queens Park, Rangers and Scotland, a couple of small clubs then ending his football career on a high back at the City. Captain of the cricket club, businessman, educationalist and Lord Provost of Elgin.

Relegation of Everton is not necessary for the scouse greetin’.
