Sammy McMillan: the green Northern Ireland No.8 jersey worn in the match v Scotland at Hampden Park 7th November 1962, short-sleeved, square I.F.A. cloth badge, gained as a swap by Denis Law from his Manchester United team-mate at the end of the game This was an unhappy night for the Irish, with Scotland winning the game convincingly 5-1. Enquires made in regard to this Sammy McMillan jersey revealed that Mr McMillan is still in possession of Denis Law's Scotland jersey that he exchanged for his own at the end of the 1962 international. appendix The following five lots are jerseys that Denis Law gained as swaps between 1962 and 1966. They are being offered by the grandson of Denis Law's landlady during his playing days in Manchester, firstly when playing for City in season 1960-61, and thereafter when he returned as a United player after the season at Torino.. When eventually moved on from his lodgings, Denis Law left the jerseys for the vendor's grandparents to keep. Some further Denis Law jerseys from this same collection are currently on loan and display at the Manchester United Museum, Old Trafford, including Denis Law's 1963 F.A. Cup final jersey.
