Ross/John/Stevie,
Have provided the following not because of numbers, (although interesting) but more on the basis of advocating involvement in District representation and Thistles / Perpignan development opportunities.
Digging out some old stuff and to the best of my memory, I think the following is as best a guide I could get: NB Bold equals still playing, underlined equals Perpignan or Thistles selectees. I hope I’ve not missed anyone out …please let me know if I have and I’ll correct any mistakes.
Lanarkshire Lions:
Harris, Goodman, McGarrity, Mitchell, Donnachie, Watters, Miller, Price, Mullen, Smith Mark, Smith Gav, McLelland, Maxwell, Kennedy.
Of these the following went on to become;
Chiefs:
Harris, Goodman, McGarrity, Mitchell, Donnachie, Watters, Price, Mullen, Smith Gav, McLelland, Maxwell.
Of these 4 were selected to play for the firsts at the tender age of 16/17!
From this age group some were unlucky not to be selected for district, but are still playing:
Lee McWhinnie, Scott Murphy, Robert Johnstone, Fraser McGlashan, Davie Stewart, Darren Hay, Chris Howieson?
Lanarkshire Lions:
Harris, Strain (Hawks), Simmonds, Goldie, Aitken, Ainsworth, Begley, Cummings (Biggar?), McCartin, Carling, Hunter, Porter, Ferguson, Gilchrist.
Of these the following went on to become;
Chiefs:
Harris, Strain, Simmonds, Goldie, Aitken, Ainsworth, Gilchrist, McCartin, Carling, Begley, Porter, Hunter
Still playing from this age group:
Mekel, Gilchrist
On the evidence of the Festival Dalziel have got some more excellent talent coming through and similarly getting the opportunity to further develop their skills in district /Perpignan selection....well done.
