Who is Ron Glasgow?
Ronald "Ron" Glasgow was a Scottish rugby union player.
He was capped ten times between 1962-65 for Scotland. He also played for Dunfermline RFC, and Gordonians RFC.
"Ron Glasgow was the most under-capped Scottish forward, winning only ten caps between 1962 and 1965... Glasgow's performance at Cardiff [in 1962] alone should have ensured him of a long reign at open-side wing-forward.
"It was his misfortune to play for unfashionable clubs: Jordanhill College, Gordonians and Dunfermline. I have no doubt that had he played for Hawick or Gala or one of the big city clubs he would have represented his country more often."
Glasgow's try was the first Scottish one in Cardiff for twenty seven years.
Robin Lind who played for Dunfermline and North-Midlands said "never, ever did I think my team would lose when Ron Glasgow played for us. And very seldom we did."
