I think that's around the time Ratters was playing left back for us, now I have seen some bad ones in my time but Ratters has to be the worst!!Remarkable how he turned it around when he moved into central defence, what a player!!

Chopper was just trying but failing to foul him as usual

Never forget the contribution of Chopper's full-back partner-in-crime, Eddie McCreadie, the man responsible for the finest kung fu kick ever seen on live British TV

Cant believe that patch of land behind the International pub in Seaforth used to be a stadium. Used to play footy with a lad who lived by there and it was full of shopping trolleys and permanent bonfires.

Must be his first club photo judging by the badge

I seen him at left back in a inter cities game he got sent off - Barton at right back had a great game for us , but we still got beat with only having 10 men.....

I wonder what the VAR would say about that now..........

Booking for Bremner. If a Liverpool player committed the foul, a sending off - for Bremner.

VAR would probably deem it a fair tackle!!

Tommy Wright?

Yep just checked I feel that game was the win over United at Goodison first game of the season August 1968 - Tommy Wright was no 2

Not as high as this one, but Ratcliffe's tackle on Lerby in the famous Bayern Munich game comes close.

He was indeed a disaster at LB. But even then his normal playing position, in the ressies, was as a CB. When he came in at LB you could see in his game that he was still thinking he was a CB. He was forever coming into the centre to help out the CBs, leaving his winger unmarked!
