    billyg got a reaction from Scott-Leeds in FORFUXSAKE REFEREE   
    Without doubt , Rangers were a really poor outfit at that time and we played them off the park  , but the longer it went without us converting a chance the more we were handing it to McGinlay to do the dirty on us , which he did. I remember hearing a recording of the radio commentary and even they were baffled at the decision. I hoped I would, one day, get a chance to tell BM that he had cheated us , and at Glasgow Airport in 2006 I got that chance, and he didn't attempt to deny it !

    Reminds me of an old ,now late, friend , Neil Gribben. They had a good jukebox in Dusty's , which I always thought was a waste , 'cos the place was usually empty. One Friday, mid 70s , we had been out all day , went in there and Neil played a song on the Jukey called 16 Bars. I said , the Stylistics ???? He said "Aye , this is the 16th bar we've been in today " !

    As I said last year when they requested similar - it’s a massive NO from me.  
    Get your arses down to Tesco and do some backpacking , have a bucket collection at games and those who want to support this can do so - not just SMISA members or approach local businesses etc for sponsorship .

    Expensive defeat v Cowdenbeath in December '71. We lost Andy McFadden with a bad injury in the first minute and lost a goal straight away and didn't recover . Cammy Murray , Dave  Millar , Dan Stevenson, Gordon McQueen , Billy McDerment for us and Dave Cairns and Billy Mullen for Cowden !

    No doubt Reid and Copland would have become one of those good partnerships had fate not stepped in. Even more frustrating that Fulton and Copland never had the chance to blossom as there was too much tinkering going on at that time. Fulton had everything , ability , stature and quite pacy yet clashes of personalities saw him offloaded.
