Hi Webmaister, just read all posts from John St school. Brought back so many memories. Your photograph of 1970 football team were all in my year as well as your sister Linda.
For Victor Docherty the boy front row no 5 was
Alistair Dougall and not James Wooodburn as they both lived beside me in Forrest Street, Mile End. I was neighbours with your friend Edward Hunter.

... well what an amazing picture John St cup winning team 1970, I saw myself in the front row and now all the boys, i sat next tae wullie miller at school and i was known as big crazy.
Great team we beat Duncanrigg 7-1 in the semis and willie miller scored six, In the final we beat Holyrood 3-2 willie scored a hatrick, Tam brannigan gave away a penalty in the final and we were under the cosh a bit. Big willie done the business. Where are all the guys?

I attended St james primary at a youngster. what great memories of bridgeton and calton.

Also remember St Thomas Church,where I got my 1st set of bagpipes from.

Brilliant memories, I played in this team. Story goes, we beat Dncanrigg 7-1 in the semi final.. Willie Miller scored 6..In the Final we beat HOLYROOD 3-2..Willie Miller scored a hat trick. Close game,, Tam Brannigan classy player, gave away a penalty, unfortunately hand ball. In the picture, that's me front row left. We Hughie Galbraith, cracking wee goalie. Victor Doherty, real tough player. All the best est, great memories. The medal was pretty small, size of an d shilling
