Looking for a bit of advice if anyone can help. I'll be in Glasgow tomorrow during the day and was wondering does anybody know if you can get a wristband for the kit unveiling tomorrow at the ground or did they have to be ordered before now? Cheers.

{Ed007's Note - Free wristbands are available from the shop from 9:00 am, Kev. I reckon there'll be queue there mate as a lot of schools are closed tomorrow for the local elections voting so best get a flask and piece made up and head off just now :)

Right Ed. its not your summer hols your going in, a piece and a flask. oh wait it's Glasgows Green and White new football kit. , better take 2 flasks and a hamper,
HH.

{Ed007's Note - It wasn't a holiday but I remember going away for a day with my pal and his folks when I was 6 or 7 - Sitting on Barassie beach with one of those big windcheater things you stuck in the sand round us to keep the gale force wind off us, wearing an anorak, shorts and wellies and eating either cheese n onion or boiled egg pieces his mam had made - we could have done with a flask of soup that day!}

ED007 getting nostalgic on his birthday, do you remember the famous Matt McGinn Jeely Piece Song
Oh ye cannae fling pieces out a twenty story flat
700 hungry weans will testify tae that
Be it buttter, cheese or jeely
Be the breid plain or pan
The odds of it reaching us ar ninety nine tae wan.

{Ed007's Note - Jeez oh Timbo, I'm only 43! I don't even know who Matt McGinn is.}

Come on ED007 Matt McGinn fae the Calton one of Glasgow's best folk singers and a big TIM. Sadly died in 1977. Look up his songs on Youtube some serious, some comical.
He also wrote one song dedicated to our resident ex bear UJ

Jack Aitchison scored again for the U17's, this time at the Euro Finals. He must be in BR's thoughts for getting some game time soon, especially in pre-season.
