7 comments so far (post your own)Please check John Blackley's Scottish Cup total of 5 in season 1971/72. Alex Pringle is registered in your records as playing v Aberdeen in the q/f on 18/03/1972, but I think this is incorrect. <br />

Brilliant feedback Patrick, that's exactly what I'm looking for - especially with specific games and dates.<br />
<br />
I'll check this next time I'm in the library. (edited by moderator)

John Blackley, aka "Sloop", represented Scotland at the 1974 World Cup in West Germany, (Vs Zaire ); - Eric Schaedler was also in the squad but did not play. (edited by moderator)

John Blackley was sent off in the game Vs Rangers on 24/03/1973 in Scottish League (A 0-1).

Did not retire after Hibs - he was sold to Newcastle United

"Sloop" apparently had a pre-match ritual whereby he came last out of the tunnel and kicked the ball into the net.
