Trivia

The players were Simpson, Young, Gemmell, Murdoch, McNeill, Clark, Johnstone, Gallacher, Chalmers, Lennox, Auld, Hughes, McBride, Fallon, Cushley, McCarron, O’Neill. The one absentee was Jim Craig who, as a dental student at Glasgow University was not available for the tour.
- Ex Kilmarnock players Jimmy Copeland scores for Bermuda.
- Gemmell scores twice when playing at centre forward as an experiment.
- Jock Stein is named as Scotland and Britain’s manager of the year – and in doing so won a £500 prize!
