Frank had 2 spells with Scone as Coach. I don't think he was ever their Manager.

In between he was manager of Dunning Heather in the Perthshire Amateur League.

Scotland played a couple of warm-up matches before the 1982 World Cup against lower division Spanish sides.

I have a feeling that Partick maybe did so as well in 1968/9 - Arthur Dunc...

In the late 60s and 70s the Evening News had an Amateurs feature one day a week - I think it was on a Thursday. It gave the results from the previous week, league tables and fixtures for the next week, plus a summary of news. Many teams told their players to check the Evening News on a Thursday to f...

Most were from Campbeltown and its immediate surrounds but some were from further afield. The structure of the Scottish Junior Cup in the 1950s meant one place in the last ...
