50 YEARS AGO
Ayr United can thanks the right foot of Alex Ingram from preventing them from becoming eleven shame- faced players at the end of this Scottish League Cup supplementary round first leg tie at Somerset Park on Monday ( 1- 1).
The brilliant display of Madden and the Clydebank defence apart, had Ingram not found the net just 30 seconds from time, then United would have suffered the indignity of having attacked almost non- stop for absolutely nothing. Admittedly the Clydebank defence was a credit to the football planning designed to get a draw.
