Saints No 1 supporter Iain Neilson pictured with team manager Iain Jackson and club secretary David Buchanan. Iain follows the team on a regular basis both at home and away. Iain Jackson said: 'We've been to some far flung pitches this season that sometimes take the team bus a while to find, but nine times out of ten Iain Neilson
 is at the park before us - his support is much appreciated by the boys.'


 Was it . . .  or wasn't it? Donald Campbell goes down in the Aikenhead box, but referee Alan Lamb didn't give a penalty.

Let's not forget that Aikenhead Thistle contributed to a good game of football and although the Glasgow side
lost 1-0 they showed that they hadn't travelled all the way to Oban just to make up the numbers.
