    One of his goals that was brilliant.

      Has anyone mentioned that he was an England amateur international?

          I just remember it being a great game Bob but I can't for the life of me recall the goals.

            He did indeed, just checked, scored 4 in 3 group games for GB.

              In my mind’s eye, I have it as a shot on the turn from the corner of the Grange End/Bob Bank a bit closer in than Peter King’s amazing volley against Middlesbrough, but your mind can play tricks on you. What I definitely remember being thrilled by one of Brown’s goals and thinking I’d never seen anything like it in my young life.

              The game was played on 30/8/67 (thought it was a bit before that) and there were 14,351 watching it.
