Frank Haffey

Francis Haffey (born 28 November 1938) is a Scottish former footballer who played as a goalkeeper for Celtic and the Scotland national team.

After breaking an ankle in the Glasgow Cup against Partick Thistle in November 1963, effectively ending his Celtic career, he left the following October to play for Swindon Town.

Soon thereafter, Haffey moved to Australia, where after a five-year spell as a footballer there he found his way into the entertainment business as a cabaret singer, and later operated a goalkeeping centre on the Gold Coast, Queensland.

At Wembley, an inexperienced Scotland side featuring 4 debutants and averaging less than 6 full caps per player pre-kick off kept a high-scoring English attack[5][6] at bay through large periods, and the game was poised at 5–3 with 12 minutes to go.

However, two goals from Johnny Haynes, another from Bobby Smith and a third for Jimmy Greaves in the closing stages cemented Haffey's place in history.
