Happy birthday also to Alex MacDonald the ex-St.Johnstone, Rangers and Hearts player who turned 68 today. Alex only played one game for Scotland as Willie Ormond tried out an experimental team against Switzerland in April, 1976. Future Scotland stalwarts Alan Rough and Frank Gray also debuted that night, as did Motherwell’s Willie Pettigrew who would score the only goal of the game in two minutes. Tommy Craig of Newcastle, Bobby McKean of Rangers and Des Bremner of Hibs would like MacDonald make their one and only appearance that night too.
Happy Birthday Doddie!
