Back,
Alec Gordon, Tommy Neilson, Doug Smith, Lando Ugolini, Stewart Fraser, Jimmy Briggs
Front,
Wattie Carlyle, (?), Dennis Gillespie, Jim Irvine, Neil Mochan

You're great at this, Billy! The (?), is that maybe a young Tommy Millar? Before his comb over style?

Gibby Ormond.
 

Asked the guy who lives roond the coarner fae me, been an Arab since '46 (he's 85), he thinks it might be Dave Bonar.

That's the one! Played in white that night.

And the player with the ball in Tek's team picture with Lando Ugolini as the 'keeper is Tommy Millar, I'm assured by a veteran expert from Perth.

And confirmed by the ET:

That's a fantastic photo JA never seen that one. Never thought I'd watch a UEFA Cup Final from there. 

See the barrier at the front left? Sometimes used to watch the last 5-10 minutes of a half from there just for a different view before changing ends at halftime. Was at the top of the bank over there the night the ground attendance record was set and it was some sight, 28500 in there

September 57 was when the Shed was covered, (which you can just see in the top right) but I think this picture is much later than it looks. The pitch was moved 18 feet to accommodate the additional width of the new gymnasium and JK stand enclosure in 1961-62, and the north terrace extended so I think this photo is that 18 foot being put in and the extension of the north terracing. So sometime 1961/2

Great photo, japanarab, and fine detail redford_must_score.

Smeds, a lot of space on the north side, still is to an extent. This map is from the 'fifties>
