uys , Updated some more results end Dec 76. 5XV's out o few times , 5ths beating Hamilton 68 - 9. In league 1sts having mixed results with recent opposition Howe & Greenock bettering us in league but winning other 6 games. A 5thXV that had only 9 players, as mentioned earlier. Also have a look at Ardrossan 7's listing Aug 76 - played West who had 2 current Scottish Internationalists of that year , one being a Lion. Note John Lando burned the International winger on the outside !!!!!!!!!! Great stuff. Shanky of 3rdXV fame , playing back then. One of our young school boys got a Scotalnd Schools cap that year and played for 2nds Ally Hill from Wishaw HS. Have a gander.
