Gordon Bremner joined Motherwell in January 1946 from Arsenal for £2,750 upon demobilisation from the Army and he would stay with the club for 5 years before being given a free transfer. His brother Hutton Bremner, also played for Motherwell. Those who witnessed Gordon play described him as an elegant player with excellent passing ability. Gordon also won a wartime cap against England in the 1942/43 season. His career like many others had been interrupted by World War 2 but he did go on to make over 100 appearances for Motherwell.
Bremner also featured in ‘The Arsenal Stadium Mystery’, the 1939 murder mystery film set at Highbury.
