Remember him scoring in a game where we got an absolute thumping but I can’t remember the opposition.

Was it not that Cyprus team limassol in the not so friendly friendly.

Don’t think they humped us. 2-0 sticks in my head, their keeper was a top boy.

Going even further back remember we had Kevin Cawley and Diarmud O’Carroll on trial who had both recently left Celtic. It was common knowledge that we’d sign one but not both. It’s fair to say we made the wrong decision as Cawley didn’t score a single goal for us while O’Carroll scored a few for airdire including the winner against us.

Fair play to Cawley he’s went on to have a decent career in the lower leagues.

Cawley was 5 foot 4 and weighed about 6 stone when he signed for Ayr straight from Celtic youths and wasn't ready for first team football and at the time. 

I always thought Cawley would have been a player, he had a great touch and lots of skill but as you say he was like a wee boy who was chucked in against men and was totally out of his depth.

I'd go as far as to say his build at the time we signed him made young Forrest look like Geoff Capes...........
