defender, solid at the back. Though James never did get chance to see Mo Johnson
while living in Kansas. If you get chance to see this Mo and you 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.
