Re-signed for Thistle but his sign-on fee went straight to John Lambie who paid off his debts.

teecee- Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Last I heard of PK he had chucked gambling, but that was many years ago. Strange to hear he is taxi driver as he did not have a licence when playing. Wish him all the best as I was well looked after at St Mirren home games.

Used to see PK feeding the puggy in Finlay's on Kilmarnock Road - this would have been in the '90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've spent some time in his company in there but I don't like to mention it, lest we are inundated by screaming Thistle fans from the early '90s.

It's funny either way, but I think it was deliberate. Hard to believe it just slipped out without him noticing. That would be enough to send you round the bend.

In the team were Ian and Gavin Redford, Ray Stewart and a few others who ended up playing for Arbroath, Montrose and the like. Unfortunately the pub burned down around 10 years ago and nothing has been done with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
