Alec Bennett's Scottish Football League versus Southern Football League medal, awarded to the player on the 14th October 1912, made in nine carat gold Note: Alec Bennett was born in 1881, signed for Glasgow Celtic Football Club in 1903 where over the five seasons he played there won four Scottish League Championships as initially a centre forward and later outside right. He won three full international caps with Scotland during his Celtic career, before signing for Glasgow Rangers in May 1908, ten days after scoring the winning goal against them, becoming the first footballer to play for both Celtic and Rangers. This transfer caused an enquiry to be called for though Celtic's complaint that the player had been approached by Rangers was found without substantiation owing to a clause in the players contract. He continued to play for Rangers until 1914, winning three more league championship medals and eight further full international caps. Quotes of the period in respect of the player included "A veritable artful dodger with rare speed and command of the ball" and "He had a rare and speedy stride and when he ran it took a good man to catch him". He died in 1940.
