  1. I was really thinking the straight from Chelsea players including the Loaners. I don't think McNaught was on loan but not sure. Mckinlay came from Ross County and Nicholls I don't remember. As to the best , of course Billy Dodds, not only 4 goals against East Fife but a winner against Clyde!

  2. First of all I did do a stint as a Apprentice Sheet Metal worker for 3 years does that count as a gig?

     

    I did see quite a few bands at the Apollo between 78 - 81, some were great: some not so. Among the best would probably be UFO, the Obsession tour unfortunately with Paul Chapman and not Michael Schenker on guitar. AC/DC with Bon Scott and Def Leppard supporting. Judas Priest with Iron Maiden ( a lot leather about that night). Others at the time included Rush, Queen, Van Halen, ZZ Top and even Journey at the Apollo. However, my favourite has to be the Black Crowes at the Barrowlands. What a great night but talk about being brought down to earth with a bang. As me and my mate YoYo got into a taxi afterwards, we asked the driver the Thistle score. " They got beat 7 nil by Aberdeen " came the reply. The only home game I missed that season!

  3. I have always been disappointed there has never been a Chinese Table Tennis Player called Ping Pong Ping. Or a shot putter called Hugh Jars. Or maybe even an American Show Jumper called Buck LaRue. Maybe, more likely a tennis player with the second name Love or Deuce
