breakplough1.jpg breakplough3.jpg breakplough2.jpg Michael, having studied the older pic I posted almost six years ago, I'm pretty certain the house on the extreme right, is the wee white cottage in your recent photos. In other words, the future Sinclair Street would be directly behind the house in...

Oops, the 'Tommy' that's there is actually Gilmour, sorry. :oops: I'll pass on your best wishes to Margaret An...

I can't help with the Chekkers question, but the post made me think of a talented guitarist and singer I knew very well, who would've played the same venues as you around the same time, but with another band. He was Jimmy Gallagher, who played with The Red Robins. Jimmy was married to my cousin, Mar...

I worked for sci in Irvine for 15 years at some points they had a workforce pushing 1000. My older brother was employed in SCI for a few years. He despised the place with a passion. He looked like someone had massacred his family every time he went to work. I recall him getting us one of the very e...

She wasn't old and lived in one of the cottage flats opposite the white wife. all after my time I think. The only building there was old St. John's school, the priest's house next door. Gypsies would camp in the summer back of the school, otherwise nothing between the school and the road but the sa...

The decisive moment in the match was the penalty incident. I reckon I've watched it a dozen times now, and can't see contact. For me, Martin simply missed a sitter, the ref, I think, wrongly believes the Maltese defender clips him, sends the guy off, and Scotland are in Easy Street. Never a penalty,...

Michael is right with the names, and the girl is Maureen O'Pray.

Chris, you are correct also. Sadly, Johnny Smyth died 2 two weeks ago. Joe Morris was his brother in law. Johnny was married to Liz Morris.

can anyone tell me what happened to Carl anderson? I'm intrigued to learn as i may have family connection. any assistance or help much appreciated! Carl Anderson spent a few years in England (Morecambe, I think). He returned to Scotland around 1982ish and set up a taxi business with his brother, Ga...

Calm down Peter as I stated earlier we know Rangers have pulled this stunt for years, but as I said earlier blame the schedulers. Although I wish forrest was injured :lol: I couldn't be calmer mate, believe me. :D I just felt the post merited a wee reply, that's all really. If it sounded in any way...

Griffiths & tierney pull out of squad due to injury & lee wallace brought in.Two questions: will both Celtic players play in old firm game a wk later & if strachan didn't rate wallace in the lower leagues, why does he think he is capable now after the spfl has barely started? Answers on...

Thanks for the Geography lesson but it's what I and many others have always called it and I'm not changing now. I can assure you I wasn't giving out any geography lesson bonzo, merely stating a 100% fact. //perfect However, call it whatever you wish. Believe me, I've heard it called much worse than...
