hk blues Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 10 hours ago, Specky Ginger said: I'm not sure about the Alex Stuart situation, but I'm trying to work out who Ayr would have been playing on the day Hugh Sproat was wearing a red jersey. He always wore green against the currant buns and blue against the jungle Jims. As an aside to this, I had a fair few football cards during his era and he seemed to have a red jersey on more often than not. In fact, I don't recall him in any other colour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Panini album sticker book, presumably 1978 edition, blurb under the Ayr United Aberdeen-born manager Alex Stuart says he rejected the Aberdeen job in 1977, who then turned to Billy McNeill whilst Stuart left Ayr United a year later to take over at St Johnstone... Can anyone draw more light on this? Rikki Fleming looking like he's the fifth McGann brother in that picture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's Dumbarton's Peter Coleman, happy to be corrected. My favourite memory of the wee man dates from 30th March 1974 when he scored an absolute reeker of a 30-yard equaliser into the postage stamp at Parkhead in a very entertaining 3-3 league match. Celtic's scorers were Deans, Wilson and Dalglish, whilst the McAdam brothers scored Sons other two, with Willie Wallace playing against his old club. As the pic shows Celtic wore an unusual strip of green and black stripes which I don't think featured too often. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but you could check out the ground redevelopment before and after pics niche thread if that's what floats your boat.

I’ll stick to scrolling past the pics of Jock McTartan playing for Auchenshuggle Rovers in the 1736 cup final and look for the interesting stuff. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Meeker Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 MacTartan I think you'll find. Some player by the way. Sickening how Auchenshuggle treated him after the injury. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
