SBS Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 And while on the subject of graves, in Hawkhead Cemetery you will find this one for Andy Reid. Andy played 260 games for Saints before becoming trainer to John Cochrane during the 20s. As a management team they guided Saints to victory in Barcelona in 1922 and the Scottish Cup in 1926 before heading south to reform the partnership with Cochrane at Sunderland in 1929. At Roker Park they became the first management team to win the Scottish Cup and the FA Cup when Sunderland triumphed in 1937 having already won the First Division in 1936. Andy returned to Love Street in the 1940s and helped guide the team to the Summer Cup in 1943 before retiring at the age of 68 in 1950.

santaponsasaint Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 Is this Eric Sinclair. Not sure. If it is. Think he played 45mins for us and was shipped out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santaponsasaint Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 It certainly is. Did he not end up with a newsagent along the road from the Sheriff Court or am I thinking of someone else. Dundee managed 10 good years out of him and he was crocked when he came to us.No. Your thinking of the guy who came from Celtic. Forget how first name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santaponsasaint Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 Graham Sinclair owned the newsagents next to the elbow room bar. He was a full back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookie Monster Posted May 18, 2021 Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 Won’t be the first time you’ve failed to recognise your own players at a match. I used to put that down to the bevvy. [emoji481] [emoji23] We know your excuse, you couldn't see them for the big 5 foot tall lads that stood in front of you. [emoji14]PS, well done in remembering your password.

Would that have to do with under estimating how long the newly painted seats in main stand took to dry in time for next game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I first saw Fitzy play in this game. http://www.stmirrenprogrammes.co.uk/StMirren/STM_Match_Details.php?Season=1975&GameID=197508010 I still have the programme and I’m sure it has an article about Fitzy as having learning a trade as a painter. I’m glad he was a much better player than a painter. The beating heart of Fergies Furies. Frankie boy looks really dapper and happy which is great to see given his off field struggles. What a striker he was for us. I remember him playing in the first SMiSA Saints Aid and he was lethal. He was substituted to save our fans keeper @Eric Arthur Blair from further humiliation. Only joking T. 😂 Dibble looks well too. If he had been a bit taller he would have definitely got capped on a regular basis by Scotland. In my opinion the bravest keeper to ever have represented our great club. Why is Keith Flint in the picture? 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
