Wishaw Juniors v Larkhall Thistle, Central League First Division
Thistle made the short trip across the Clyde to play high-flying neighbours Wishaw. In a week of remarkable turnarounds in the big football, Wishaw followed in the steps of Rangers Liverpool and Germany as they blew a two goal lead.
Willie Holland
It is with deep sadness that the club have to announce the passing of Willie Holland.
Another local lad who played with the Jags, Willie was a tough-tackling full back and played at Gasworks Park with some fine players such as Alex Love, Andy Lawless, Davie Kirkland and Billy Thomas.
Our sincere condolences from everyone at Larkhall Thistle are extended to the Holland family at this sad time. At this point funeral details are not to hand but we will put details on the website when information becomes available.
Rest in peace Willie.
Charlie Brown
On a very sad note the club have great regret in announcing the passing of Charlie Brown who played for the Jags and went upstairs with Clyde.
Charlie lived all his days in Larkhall and our heartfelt condolences are sent from the club to his wife Nan and family at this sad time
