Check out the No4 for St Mirren !!!

Could it be?

I know billyg is a fair age but I didn't think he was that old.

Pretty sure I was at that game. Oddly enough I remember all the players well apart from the said Billy Gray. Simply doesn't ring a bell at all.

Pictures below is Saints keeper,Denis Connaghan.He was one of the 1st Scots to play soccer in the USA when he signed for Baltimore Boys Club.He played there for a season before returning to Paisley.Connaghan used to turn out for our Reserves as an outfield player and scored 3 goals.Saints sold him to Sellic where he had a successful career before dropping down the Leagues to play for diddy teams like Thistle and M*rt*n.I believe he is still involved in football with Neilston Juniors.

We're all going to Hampden....Away to Queens Park in the next round.I think the winners of our next round will go on and win the Cup.

Very nearly missed the winner. We were getting grief of some of the animal fans and we were making our way out when

Don't know what happened there.I was about to say when Becket scored the winner we gave a few friendly waves down to the scum who had been giving us a hard time. They decided to rush up the terracing to join us in our celebrations so we left like bats out of hell. We got away OK. Bastards!

I had a free ticket for the West Enclosure that day, which saved me from paying (the then extortionate £7.50) for a Saints end ticket to witness our inevitable humping. I kept a poker face at the goal, but it was harder when Nigel Spackman tripped up Chic Charnley when the ball was 50 yards away, and the linesman blatantly turned his back on it. Rest In Piss Oldco.
