The Kintyre Forum

Meant to post this last week as I think it is a belter. Certainly a team filled with good footballers.

This appeared in last weeks Courier



This football park is now the site of an industrial estate but back in 1979 at the Tarbert Seafood Festival it was the scene of a triumph or the lads of Calton Thistle, who won the festivals junior football competition.

Back row: David Mullan, Gary McGeachy, Richard Grogan, Steven Dott, Craig Colville, Tommy McPherson, Neil McKay, Archie Armour.

Front: David McGeachy, Stephen Craig, Gary Stalker, Stuart McCallum, Archie McGeachy, Dougie West, James McEachren, Kevin McCallum.

Probably the greatest team Kintyre has ever produced, gifted individuals in every position. When will we see their likes again?

All hail the mighty Calton Thistle

That's a cracker indeed. Looks like you Sheik, big McKay and a few others must have just got the bowl on the heid for a haircut!!

Convinced I say Mullen and Big Rikki wae them jumpers on last week.

Quality knitwear

Jock - it takes a LOT of talent to wear a bowl cut in such a stylish fashion I'll be having severe words with my mother the next time I'm home

Ringmaster - have you still got that jumper?

My strip still fits me

Ringmaster if the truth be told, I've had to let it out an inch
