I strongly recommend that you contact the Police, sounds to me like a clear case of theft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely a person with any decency would just hand it back. It may just be an oversight with no malice intended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be sure to let him know I haven't visited every junior ground in Scotland. I haven't been to Brechin vics yet but I'm working on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

valleyboy Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 4 minutes ago, Ceejayar said: Do you have the hampden book? No. I got it in 2006 when I ran a sportsmanship dinner to commemorate 30 years since the cup final. I copied some of the pictures and put them on the walls of the town hall that night. I handed over £5000 to Jim McLaughlin which was twice what we made. Jim Gilmore went away with the bar takings of about £500 and I never saw him again. I returned the album to Jim McLaughlin and have not seen it since. Jim Wylie gave me a bag full of pictures and I used some for the 125th anniversary programme in the game v Killie. It's in my office for him to collect. He knows that because I've told him more than once. He has been quick enough to come to the office for business purposes so I don't know what's stopped him picking it up. Maybe the stairs are too much for him.

We had this conversation long before your dad passed away. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that you're mistaken but the bag with the stuff you did give me is still in the office and I've told you that several times.

Neil the work you done for darvel will never be forgotten, you probably did keep us afloat but I would like to think if you have anything that belongs to the club it would be returned. Also I think I can say on behalf of the supporters you will be made more than welcome doon the brae if you chose to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only photographs you gave me are in the bag you gave me them in and are lying in the office as I have told you on more than one occasion. That you chose not to collect them is up to you but they are still there exactly as I received them. Clearly you have forgotten you gave me them and maybe that's because you got them from your mum .

He is keeping well, can’t get him to get off the chair on a Saturday to go and watch but also can’t stop him talking about darvel when he starts.
