lauchlan Posted July 25, 2023 Author Share Posted July 25, 2023 It was a lovely service and was great to see a lot of Scotland players pay their respects including James McFadden and John Collins. Managed to have a quick chat with his daughter Val, she was lovely and appreciates all the kind wishes of the Tartan Army   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ally Bongo Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 From some of the photos Andy Roxburgh has aged dramatically in the last few years - he actually looks no well Was there any sign of Jock Brown ? He seems to be missing from the coverage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lauchlan Posted July 26, 2023 Author Share Posted July 26, 2023 I didn't see Jock Brown but the room was very busy so not easy to spot everyone. I looked at Andy Roxburgh as he walked in, didn't realise it was him until someone greeted him by his name 🥺 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhumper Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Watched the service. Was like a who's who of scottish football. Family did him proud. Was at a golf day the other week with Rab Reilly ex Killie, Clyde, Albion etc ahc he was very close to Craig, Archie Knox, Jim Mcsherry etc. Always seemed to be having catch ups at Mcsherrys pub in Ayr.

The point is that Roxburgh always looked younger than his years - a bit like Jan Michael Vincent Even if you look at interviews from not that long ago you wouldnt guess whe was approaching 80 Sharp deterioration is all i was pointing out Up yours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a full head of hair with very little grey hides a lot of aging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhumper Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 (edited) I have to admit, i had the same thoughts as Ally. That said, i saw Bobby Lennox the other day and had similar thoughts. Suppose time catches up with everyone. Edited July 26, 2023 by Squirrelhumper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
