LineysLament 182 Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Saw him many years ago outside St Midden's ground (Love st?) The Auld Man sent me across to get his autograph which he then snaffled for himself. Halfway through the first half Davie blootered the ball about a mile wide of the goal and smashed my bottle of ginger which I had placed agains the outside of the terracing wall. So sad to hear of his illness nowWATP Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
necorner 1 Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Sad to hear this. Had the pleasure of meeting him in one of the hospitality suites a couple of years ago. Seemed fit and well for his age and he spent a good wee while chatting to us. Seemed like a lovely man. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
