Alan Brydon’s specially commissioned song for the enhancement of the Scottish Memorial in Flanders on the 100th Anniversary of Passchendaele 2017. The song is dedicated to footballer Jimmy Speirs who played for Maryhill, Clyde, Glasgow Rangers, Bradford City, Leeds and Scotland. He famously scored the goal that won the F A Cup for Bradford in 1911. He later volunteered for service in WW1 and fell at Passchendaele.
To mark remembrance at Ibrox Stadium, Alan’s song was played before the match against Partick Thistle.
Blown away with this song! Such moving songs Alan Brydon pens. ⚽️ ✒ 🎼 🎙
