notes
  • The PT line-up in the LNH is frustratingly spoiled by lack of names:- Duff, Hendry, Brown, “centre-back” A Brown, “forwards (left wing)” Souter, Johnston, “right wing” Marshall, Miller, “centre” R Robertson. So far, it looks like 2 are included who aren't in the OH, namely Alexander Brown and Bob Robertson. We've decided to stick with the OH for now, with the intention of seeking out the SFA Scottish Cup ledger book at Hampden Park for the definitive answer.
