    From the Rules sticky

    7. No Vote For Me Competitions. Please do not post vote for me competitions, they are not allowed on this forum.

    (Not suffering from delusions of grandeur but I don't think any board guides are around atm)

    thanks for clarifying

    seeing a few vote for me threads are linked to competitions and to try to please everyone do you think its a good idea to have a sticky maybe in the i won i won section for vote for me comps?


    It quite clearly says at the top of the page:

    ' Don't post links for personal gain. Except in the referrers section and always declare any interest.'

    It would seem to me then that 'vote for me' requests should all be in the referrers section and not on the comps board.

    0 he didn't get any caps, is what i found xxx

    In all, he won winners' medals for five League Championships, two Scottish Cups, and one League Cup. His matches for the club included 15 in Europe. And he is believed to have played more first team games for the club than any other Scotsman without winning a full Scotland cap.

    This failing however is largely down to bad luck. He made seven appearances for the Scottish League side – an honour greater than some of the giveaway caps won in today's international games. He travelled with the Scotland party to Austria, Hungary and Turkey in an end of season tour in 1960 but he didn't play.

    The Obit I read said that he was capped for his seven Scottish League appearances but never played internationally.
