Trivia

  • Billy McNeill was finally back fit again after his knee injury and returned at centre half with McNamee missing out.
  • Willie Fernie was linked with a move to Falkirk over the weekend. Then on 22nd November St Mirren made a £4000 bid to take him to Love St. Fernie took time to mull over the bid and on the 24th November he signed for them.
