    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.

    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...

    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).

    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 !!!

      @@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.

      @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

    Blimey O'Riley, those presenters weren't backward in going forwards, were they? And you could see the embryonic Archie McPherson was going to have a rich future in football commentary, even by flubbing the names of those rugby clubs.
