Jimmy Speirs

[edit ]

I have written a book on the history of Maryhill Football Club. Jimmy Speirs played for Maryhill in the last month of season 1904/05. He won the Glasgow Junior Cup (scoring in the first drawn game and getting the only goal of the game in the replay) He also won the Glasgow Junior Charities Cup in the same season. Maryhill were league champions in that season but I do not think he would have played enough games to get a medal. In the wikipedia record the Glasgow Junior Cup win shows under Annandale. This was the Juvenile he played for before joining Maryhill. Brian Reilly — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.147.31.178 (talk) 21:19, 3 November 2018 (UTC) [reply ]
