There is a set of houses named after Benny [Benny Lynch close] not far from wher his old street would have been ,a Gorbals Diehard and a World champion but sadly a waste of a young life. |

the Benny Lynch picture is a real gem. Thanks again for this stuff. Love it. P.S. Billy Stark no caps. Almost as bad as Harry Hood. Any others who the SFA chose to ignore ? |

It pains me to say this but the Scotland manager who never gave Starky a chance was big Jock. Jock also didn't pick TB for Scotland around that time either. Ferguson spotted Starky as amateur and took him to St Mirren. Then bought him for Aberdeen the years they won Cup Winners Cup (he was supposed to be replacement for Strachan but WGS stayed for extra year). Starky was a wonderful player, completely under-rated. He scored in two cup finals in 85-86 for Aberdeen. And he could have retired on that goal against DeidCo on his OF debut in 87 He is a truly decent man and his eulogy at TB's funeral was him to a tee. |

Joe Craig against Motherwell. who've got Gregor Stevens, Joe Wark and Stuart McLaren in pic. A good team then who always gave us problems. |

He was brought up in Florence Street and died in August 1946 - I have a family link. Really tragic and sad tale and his son's life was not much better - The son was only 34 when he passed.

You've got a good memory CB But think this particular Motherwell team had one good player - judging by the strips its 77-78 and this is probably the game where Vic Davidson came back to CP and scored the winner in 1-0 defeat. We played them 3 times in a week. That league game and then the old two-leg League Cup first round, 0-0 at Fir Park and 4-2 at CP with Wilson, Burns, Craig and McLaren og

Have to say that this pic sums up Fortune's time at Celtic! Second best - or is that third - to Killie's legendary No29 (I was at the game and even I can't recognise him). Was this Robbie Keane's debut? Fortune's last game for us at Utrecht was the worst I've ever seen. Never tried. Don't care if he was moving the next day, we were entitled to more. |

Yeah. Complete obsession with "being in the trenches" in Scottish football. With Billy Stark, that's like using a Ferrari to pull a caravan. Edit. Wondering if the ex-Aberdeen player was Neale Cooper?... Edited by Wilfred Benitez, 12 Jan 2014, 09:29 PM.

I know where you're coming from, but the fact the Starky never gathered a cap when Jock was in charge was more to do with number of quality midfielders Scotland had to choose from at that time, the same is true for the recent chat regarding Ian Redford RIP. Jock could choose from WGS, Souness, Wark, Bett, McStay, Provan, Cooper, John Roberston. Who would you drop to bring in either Stark or Redford? It was only latterly that Jock would pick Roy Aitken and Murdo never got a look in really until he went to Germany. When looking Starky and Scotland I would say that the major villan hat would more fit Andy Roxburgh, when Starky joined us he hit a superb run of form, scoring 12 goals in his first season, many of them vital to us, he was worth a least a cap just for the recognition of his talent. The one mega decent thing Roxburgh did do was give TB a cap at the end of 87/88 at Wembley (I was there), TB always said he really appreciated that because it meant he had a cap to give each of his children. |
