Scotty_Toronto Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I only saw Graham Leggat play live once. 30 years ago. It was in an old-timers Scotland v England charity match in Burlington, Ontario. The teams were piped on to the pitch, and what I remember most (apart from us winning 3-2) was that when they introduced the players individually they saved Graham for last, and in a wonderful show of respect he was the only one to get applause from all of the other players. http://www.legacy.co...7070&fhid=12317 Scarborough is a little over 60km from where I live. My work commitments sadly didn't allow me to stay for the funeral, but I was there for the visitation and was able to meet with and speak to the family. Graham's wife, Marilyn, his daughter, Karen, and his grand-daughter, Isabelle, were all delightful. A really, really nice family. I asked if it would be OK for me to place an Aberdeen scarf and a Scotland scarf as a fans' tribute to Graham, and they were more than happy to let me do so. 9 Link to comment
ChutneyLove Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Scotty, you over for the Germany game on Monday? I can buy you that pint I promised you on the TAMB about 5 years ago. Nice touch for Graham Leggat, I'm sure his family are proud that his memory will live on with football fans the world over. Link to comment
