Derry Alli Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Just now, 8MileBU said: Why did she want him to GTF? Any particular reason? Was Rab Douglas there and of the same opinion? They were on their 'date night' and Goram literally just walked in ordered a pint looked around and spotted Rab and come across to his table. Nah, Rab was fine. The pair of them were getting pictures taken and having a laugh with everyone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still involved with football currently holding a role with Edinburgh Uni AFC & before that Preston Athletic. Ex-ref John Underhill was a Professor of Stratigraphy at the University of Edinburgh/Heriot-Watt IPE whilst I was doing a postgrad there. I think he had done some casual refereeing post-SPL though no idea if he is still involved in the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mugen_power Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) Ex-Ayr, Kilmarnock, Berwick and Stirling Albion player Jim McSherry owns the Wee Windaes pub in Ayr, helluva nice guy. Even signed an Ayr program I had from 1976 with his photo in it Gerry Philips who also played for Ayr in the 70s was my PE teacher at Kyle Academy, many years later I had my sister take another 70s Ayr program in to school him to sign after I found one with his photo in it Of course Alex Ingram bought a car dealership after playing for Ayr, my dad worked for him as an apprentice mechanic when Ingrams garage was still on Dalblair Road!

Ross Meechan, Steven Anderson, Martyn Fotheringham, Paul McManus and Dale Hilson all actually work for the same pest control company Are they all with Ross Graham’s firm? He was chairman of Forfar till very recently (and played in the lower leagues & juniors I think). May have been giving jobs to old pals from the game or even as a wee incentive to sign for Forfar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
