My first recall is also at Broomfield.I know he was at Hearts a lot longer but, weirdly, I remember him more as an Airdrie player. His scoring record for them was excellent.
RIP.
Big player he was.Cracking wee player in his day.. R. I. P
The red row pub was right beside the garage. It got turned into the houses that are there now. I used to play for Craigandro and we had presentation nights in there. I remember they used to do the coiting out the back which was a game throwing a lump of metal into a clay pit target thing. Tom Swan helped ruin my teeth haha.Was that where the garage is now?
Correct, as mentioned previously he took no pish from anyone. Anyone that could handle the locals deserves respect.Think he had a pub in Renton at one time.
5 foot 8 lol big player for Hearts and Airdrie though.Big player he was.
