are looking for a game just drop us a line. Unfortunately James just had
his car stolen while he was working. Even more tragic was that his Thistle
shirt was in the car. His car turned up a few days later, but no Jags top.
So, if you see anyone walking around town with a Thistle shirt on and you
don't recognize them, Stick the "heed" on them and get back the shirt.
