the fixture was widely considered one of the biggest derbies in world
football.The two clubs are the most successful in the country,
between them having won 99 Country League championships (X
with 54 and Y with 45), 68 Country Cups and 41 Country League
Cups. Interruptions to their ascendancy have occurred infrequently,

season one half of the Old Firm has won the Country League
consistently and from the 2005–06 season to the 2011–12 season

first match.The match became a regular fixture in the
calendar until Sri Lanka received Test status in 1983 and

a match between Tamil Nadu and a Colombo District
Cricket Association. Two years later the fixture was
dropped again but in 2007 the Sri Lankan and Tamil

21. Q9.
• Xs playing career began as an amateur with Queen's Park, where he made
his debut as a striker aged 16.He scored Queen's Park's goal in a 2–1
defeat against Stranraer.Despite scoring 20 goals in his 31 games for
Queen's Park, he could not command a regular place in the side and moved
to St. Johnstone in 1960. Although he continued to score regularly at St.
Johnstone, he was still unable to command a regular place and regularly
requested transfers. Ferguson was out of favour at the club and he even
considered emigrating to Canada,however St. Johnstone's failure to sign a
forward led the manager to select X for a match against Rangers, in which
he scored a hat-trick in a surprise victory. Dunfermline signed him the
following summer (1964), and X became a full-time professional
footballer.The 1965–66 season saw X notch up 45 goals in 51 games for
Dunfermline. Along with Joe McBride of Celtic, he was the top goalscorer in
the Scottish League with 31 goals. He then joined Rangers for £65,000,
then a record fee for a transfer between two Scottish clubs. He was blamed
for a goal that they conceded in the 1969 Scottish Cup Final, in a match in
which he was designated to mark Celtic captain, Billy McNeill, and was
subsequently forced to play for the club's junior side instead of for the first
team. X ended his playing career in Ayr United in the year 1974.
