Allan McGraw for the SFA Hall of Fame
The motion
That the Parliament commends the campaign to have the former Morton footballer, Allan McGraw, elected to the Scottish Football Association's Hall of Fame; applauds what it sees as Allan's formidable achievements in the game as both a player and manager; notes that he holds the Scottish record for most goals in a season, scoring 58 times for Morton during 1963-64; further notes that he finished as Morton's top goal scorer in five consecutive seasons, helping the club to two promotions and a place in a Scottish Cup Final; acknowledges the backing and opportunities he gave to young players as manager of Morton, and, in so doing, considers that he set an example for football mangers in Scotland to follow.
