    With the greatest respect to Mr Brown, the best Wembley day was when Baxter and Wilson demolished England after Caldow had been carried off. Iron Curtain teammate Ian McColl was in charge.

    Aye that was a grand day as well i was at that game with Jimmy Mason

  2. In my day they never had strikers or midfielders or wing backs or any of the fancy dan titles players get now .

    we had two good wingers who would recieve the ball from their inside forwards who would have had the ball passed to them from a couple of silky half backs like a Baxter or  McCall the ball would find its way to a good old fashioned centre forward like a Millar , Forrest   or a Colin Stein who most times they would at least make the opposition goalkeeper earn his wages .

    Now these days we have wing backs holding midfielders we line up in all fancy shapes like this mythical diamond that might be okay if your team has players like Messi or Ronaldo but we dont we have a bunch of ordinary footballers who at times seem to struggle to put two decent passes together so on sunday if our manager has any sense left he should play with two cwntre forwards two half backs who can slip in some through passes and play some good old one twos get two player out on the wings to get to the goal line and cut the ball back , high , low soft and whipping in balls to the centres feet all this backed up with defenders that would boot their sick granny to win the all and its three points in the bag for us piece of toffee its that easy .
