That's cool @RosythPar, thanks for sharing it!

For anyone struggling to read the text at the top and bottom (like me) I've OCRd it and it says:

 

After beating Bruges, defeating Dinamo and drawing
at Dunfermline, Albion are now hosts to the Scottish
Cup-holders in the second leg of a third round European
Cup Winners cuptie. This four page special sets out to
say a colourful WELCOME DUNFERMLINE!


Our tartan headline
is based on the Fraser
tartan - a tribute to
Albion's full back
DOUG FRASER
(pictured above) and
Dunfermline's wing half
JIM FRASER.

Meet Dunfermline, pictured with the Scottish Cup, who are in the European Cup
Winners Cup quarter-finals for the second time, having first reached that stage in
the 1961-62 season. Lining-up for our cameraman are: Back row (left to right):
Andy Stevenson (trainer), Pat Gardner, Tom Callaghan (now with Celtic), John
McCarthy, Bert Martin, Bert Paton, Roy Barry, Jim Thomson, John Lunn, George
Farm (manager), Front: Bob Methven (assistant trainer), Bob Torrie (director), lan
Lister, Willie Callaghan, Andrew Watson (chairman), Hugh Robertson, Alex
Edwards, Leonard Jack (director), James McConville (secretary).

Will never forget that night at EEP with the big screen, we scored early if I mind right and it was a massive defensive effort to keep WBA from scoring 

Yeah, in the second minute according to that report. That thing with the big screens sounds like a blast, I would love to have been at that (or the game itself!)

Was at the first leg at EEP as well SP saw many good teams from all over back in the day and not very many left with a win, The players played as they knew how to play and did what they were good at,   No managers taking notes   no flip charts showing the subs what to do  no tactics   just go out and play and get stuck intae them
