bluegecko 306 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Saw him the other day up in EK, he visits a friend on behalf of a church thing. He also used to coach my daughters school team a good few years ago. Really nice guy and would be more than happy to give you an autograph I'm sure Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedarvelmarvel 796 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I used to share an office with wee Davie, christ about 8-9yrs ago now, when he was an agent for a security firm.Great wee guy, not a bad bone in his body and some tremendous stories.

MosesMcNeil 1,664 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Get his autograph for your grandson, he played for the greatest ever Rangers team that i have ever seen in my opinion.Way back when I was a lad, Garelochhead won our local league and we were told we'd have a surprise after the final game. I was awestruck to find Davie Wilson handing me my medal.A brilliant winger and a lovely man. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemisis 358 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Why wouldn't you ask for his autograph? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieD 19,665 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 He was my old mans hero when he was a kid, only surpassed by Jorg Albertz, which is suprising considering he's been going to Ibrox since 1962.I love Albertz but that is odd. Why him? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

konterman 2 Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 About 7 or 8 years ago he joined in with me and the boys for a kickabout in Auldhouse Park. Still had it despite his years! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tea_Total 20 Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 I was lucky enough to meet him at a Narsa convention a few years ago. A true gentleman and very funny. He seemed very shy when he was telling his stories. He spent a long time signing autographs so I wouldn't worry about that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
