Maurice Roeves


Recommended Posts

According to an obituary I've just been reading in "The Telegraph" Maurice Roeves, the "hard man" actor who died last week aged 83, was a lifelong Jags fan.

Although born in Sunderland, he was brought up in Partick, and went to Church St Primary School.  The article went on to say that he was a lifelong Jags fan.

Rest in peace, Maurice.

Many years ago I was in a wee bookshop  in Byres Road and he was in front of me in the queue to get Xmas Calendars

He had a right go at them for having piles of Old Firm calendars and no Partick Thistle ones

We then had a long chat about Thistle out on the pavement.  He didn't get to many games  but he knew plenty about our results
