  1. Another cricketing footballer was Ex- Partick Thistle and Montrose player Harry Johnston. In the 1970s he played 2 first class matches for Scotland, as well as quite a few one-dayers.

     

     



  2. Clive Allen never played a competitive game for Arsenal, this and a friendly only a few days previously against Rangers at Ibrox were his only appearances for the Highbury side, he signed that summer from QPR and weeks later was sold to Crystal Palace for a rumoured £1million pound profit, story being that QPR refused to do business with Palace due to some bust up and Arsenal pulled a real sneaky move and made a cool profit for next to nothing.

    Kenny Sansom moved to Arsenal as part of the deal.

  3. Robicheaux, the latest atmospheric novel by James Lee Burke. There is a much the sameness about each of his stories with the same characters appearing, doing and saying the same things. The passing of time is only really measured by the growing up of Alafair, the protagonists adopted daughter.
    Nice relaxing read.
