Absolute dynamite. What a post! I would only be 4 or 5 at the time of this broadcast, so although I can't possibly remember it, a very youthful Archie McPherson is very much in my footballing sphere, along with the commentary of George Davidson. Quite wonderful...

The first presenter is Archie Henry. He died 75 days after this was broadcast and died the day before JFK was assassinated. He looks in the prime of life here - 50 yrs old. How short and uncertain life is.

Excellent - thanks very much for this - shame its too early for the great David Francie (not a child in Scotland who didnt hear him in his head while running with the ball).

Wasn’t he bloody brilliant, God bless him. Sad that a lot of these wonderful players are no longer with us. I was fortunate & privileged to witness these players, was a Rangers fan from 60/61 onwards. A Golden Age in Scottish football. Wish one could bring all of these great memories back.

@@stephenturner6075 hi Stephen, cheers for sending your message, I was very lucky, such a great time & The Rangers had a wonderful team. It's such a long time ago, the very early 1960's for me 64 years ago & unfortunately I can remember so little of it. But I still have some vivid & colourful memories. I was even daft enuf to go and watch some of the Reserve teams playing, when people like Alex Willoughby & Denis Settrington played & Roger Hynd, 😂. Most of them have gone, Bless them for making Life that bit,( a lot) more exciting.

Apparently George Davidson had to buy a programme before a Stirling Albion v Celtic match back then for his commentary because he didn't know the names of the home team !!!

@jintsfan if you think Henderson was better than Jinky then you know nothing about football. Jinky was celebrated as a world class footballer all over the world . He played against the best and destroyed them .There is a long list of world class players and managers from Alf Ramsey, Di Stefano, Ghetto, Bertie Voghts,Mazzola, Fachetti,. and more who spoke about his brilliance. Did Real Madrid ever bid for Henderson ? because after wee Jinky destroyed them in them in Madrid 2 weeks after winning the European Cup they tried to might be past yer bedtime son so toddle of to bed sonny boy

I would pay to watch football the way it was then. I wouldnt pay a penny to the overpriced garbage we get now with hardly any scottish talent in our teams. The vintage games werent perfect i know. My dad used to tell me people would pee down the back of your legs and overcrowding was a problem. But the old games up till the 90s in my opinion was real football and the working class game. I remember the smell of pipe tobacco and bovril up till the late 80s.
