The weather took its toll on the numbers attending our boccia club yesterday, but there was still some quality boccia on display.

CHARLES LAPSLEY (1950 - 2020) We are saddened to announce that our player, Charles Lapsley, passed away today. Charles was the oldest powerchair footballer in the Scottish game, having turned 70 in July. His sense of humour and cheeky smile will be missed by all.

Following the sad passing of Gerry Jamieson last week, the club has lost a comedian and a member who managed to lift the spirits of the club when things were tough. Looking back at our photo archives, we have found two classic Gerry Jamieson's. Here's No.1
