Apart from Steve Archibald and Bill Nicholson being Eddie Turnbull's best pal which led to a series of friendlies in the 50's no connection at all?
I'm afraid it was more the other way around regarding Bill Nic & Ned. They became friendly, no more than that, as a result of the friendlies we played against Spurs in the 50's. I was with Eddie when we visited Spurs about 15 years ago & met with Bill N. They had mutual respect but that was really it. Mind you Ned, as usual, had the last word. Little Tommy Harmer ( ex Spurs legend ) came across to Eddie to say hello & said, I remember playing you Jocks, you weren't a bad side. Not bad said Ned, we f****d you 5-2!! End of conversation!
