  • Gordon McQueen

    Of the incredibly tight shorts, has died. I remember it was his header at Wembley against England that sparked the Scots to invade the pitch and bring the goalposts down.
    Another case referencing a link between dementia and heading the ball.

    Defender Gordon McQueen, who won 30 caps for Scotland and scored a famous goal against England at Wembley, dies at the age of 70.

    RIP Big man

      Seems to me that the great Leeds teams of the 60s and 70s have an awful lot of deceased former players in them. Strong centre back who could play a bit and wasn’t as dirty as some of his team mates.

      RIP
