The headline is stark:

"Spirit of Football Helps Dementia Suffers Reconnect their Lives"

As the member of a family recently touched by this debilitating condition, this sounds too good to be true. It seems that pleasant footballing memories can give suffers relief, albeit only for a matter of hours - better than nought, eh?

Pleasant memories of Scottish fitba' for the dementia sufferer?

We see the Tartan Army wreck the goalposts and de-turf the Wembley pitch in 1977.

The Archie Gemmill goal in '78, so beloved of Scotsport and a generation of wee boys (one man, two men, three men, GOOOAAAL!!)

There are others. But what if the presciption is misread (you know what doctors' writing is like) and the chemist dispenses a dose of less that great moments from Scotland's sad fitba' history.

Ally Mcleod, head in hands or daring to peek at disaster through trembling fingers in '78

No Scottish teams in Europe after Christmas - just about every year.

Wattie failing to clinch 10 in a row...........................Nurse, nurse, the screens! quick!

Ah, that's a relief - all recall deleted.
