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.

Today’s fixture

At last a home game, only Thistle’s third home game since the beginning of November 2015.

Larkhall Thistle would like to thank Lee Moss, who has been released by the club, for all his efforts. Lee has been a great servant over the last few years, standing in for Davie McEwan and turning up each week to provide cover despite the fact that the big man was one of the best goalkeepers in the juniors and never letting the club down on the occasions that he was called into action. We wish him all the best for the future.
