No such qualifications cloud his memories of '67 when, he said with tongue only slightly tickling cheek, "we beat England 3-2 and took the World Cup away from them". Baxter and company mocked Alf Ramsey's robots, as they were depicted north of the border, yet Brown, by then playing for Falkirk, almost missed the party. "Myself and two team-mates - Doug Baillie, who's now a reporter for the Sunday Post, and John Lambie, who manages Partick Thistle - went for lunch in the West End. The sweet was so long coming that the other two fled after the main course to get the tube to Wembley."
