Certain Individual Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Let me get this right - the manager is absent for the game against mid-tabled Neilston which you narrowly loss and show signs of an improved performance. Next games back in charge, against Irvine Vics you lose 5-2 and then the good people of Kello Rovers stroll into Gasworks and leave with you officially the worst team in the west region. ps Happy belated 66th birthday Larkyforever.

Ditto this week; until today, Muirkirk had never beaten Larkhall, ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larkyforever Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Interested to see on our website the article about Alastair Duff. By far the best natural finisher seen in living memory wearing the Red & White stripes with a venomous shot / highly accurate shooting. I recall, though, criticism as he couldnt tackle. My memory differs from the report ,though, as I always believed Alan Duff scored first at Linlithgow, not Alastair, a prod from just inside the box. Two second -half goals from Alastair saw us through. Maybe Im wrong. In my lifetime we have played the Rose 3 times, and won them all ( Lanark & Lothians, Scottish Cup 1976-77, Dryborough Cup (( 2-0, Alan Sneddon scoring ))- how times have changed. Hoping the 140- year centenary against Dukla Pumpherston will help to spark the Club back to its former glory. Readers should look at our Facebook to see the legends of the past and the calibre of player produced. Its going to be emotional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much as I would like to see Thistle's fortunes improve this season,I'm struggling to see how a bounce game between some former players and a team captained by Chick Young will provide any sort of motivational spark for the current side,Larky. What's your thinking here bud? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's your thinking here bud? Somewhere between wishful thinking and a hope that it will revive interest & support having sparked a few memories locally.

One from Rutherglen might be more accurate. I remember Alan once trying to chip the Ladeside keeper ( At Kilbirnie ) from inside our half ( keeper miles out of his box )- ball landed in an ice-cream van outside the ground. I cannot attribute a religious connotation to this attempt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larky55 Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Larkhall Thistle 4-5 Dukla Pumpherston Very enjoyable afternoon. Good crowd inside Gasworks Park. Some very entertaining football served up by both teams. Thanks Jags for a happy trip down memory lane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alastair Duff, followed by Peter Boyle, followed by John Mullholland, followed by Graham Gracie----------as strikers Peter Allan followed by Ecky Alexander as defenders. Big Mo for keeper, followed by Tommy Burns . Martin Mulhearn followed by Gerry Hamilton as midfielders. Pat Barkey followed by Johnny Sanaghan as wide players. John Chalmers could play anywhere George Dickson and Jim Dempsey as enforcers Alan Sneddon followed by Tam Sutherland as full backs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
