justonecornetto 956 Posted August 13, 2023 Joe Caven who played centre forward for a few Scottish teams has died aged 86. I saw him in his most successful period when he played alongside Allan McGraw in Greenock Morton's record breaking 1963/64 season and although he latterly lived in the North of Scotland he still had a close affinity with Morton and attended as many games as he could. I met him a couple of times and he was a great guy to speak to, RIP Joe 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
