Wonder how they understood each other, one born in Devon, one Northumberland and one Lanarkshire . RIP Ian.

Great TV show would always rush back to the children's home to watch that no matter what I was doing...

 

Sadly missed R.I.P....

Ian St John was one of a generation of great Scottish players, all the top clubs seemed to have a coterie of Scots.  Never realised he was at Wednesday.

 

RIP.

I can still remember some of that emerging Liverpool side which çreated the footballing superpower that Liverpool is today. Roger Hunt, Ron Yeats, Ian Callaghan, Tommy Smith, Tommy Lawrence, Gordon Milne, John Toshack. Ian St John scored the winning goal in the 1965 Cup Final against the bête-noir of the day Leeds United, a victory for football over a bunch of cynical pragmatists which included Norman Hunter, Billy Bremner and Jack Charlton.
