My Great Uncle Gordon (7th Btn) was lost that day, but now found, laid to rest 110 years to the day he was killed. (Full story is on BBC iPlayer - BBC Scotland).

My Great Uncle. These are the buttons that helped identify him. We have all his letters and always kept him close, delighted he is found.

@lmbd1418.bsky.social @garius.bsky.social you kindly reposted my skeet about Loos & many of your followers liked/responded to it, BBC Scotland have uploaded their documentary on the identification of Gordon (and Lt Allan) would you be so kind to repost this as those same followers may have interest.

There is an unknown Black Watch soldier being buried along with Gordon and others, you never know !!

I'm off to Loos next week to lay to rest my great uncle Gordon, KIA 25/9/1915 with no known grave until found and identified last year. Standing kilted in the pic. My grandfather is the child soldier, great grandfather the Sgt Major.

All signs pointed to him going to Bayern, even Bayern thought so (see below). I was stunned, and delighted, when we signed him, he leapt out at me the kids Euro's.

For the pearl clutchers 😉

We're not here to be popular, we're here to compete.

Isak v Wissa is incomparable, don't paint Wissa with Isak's brush.

He's not going to say he has something in writing if he hasn't, that'd be insanity.

Isak has shat on his club, His club have shat in Wissa.

It's incomparable.

So anyone thinking Ornstein and the Athletic are neutral in this Isak malarkey, think again. #NUFC (I nicked this from a post elsewhere).
