The guy I spoke to said that Alex was in a BB team in Kinning Park, and that came up in the book. I think he would have been my favourite player in that Jock Wallace era; he just had something about him, which comes out in the book as well. Everyone in KP was in BB nine churches between Admiral Street and Ibrox Park Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
