We are sorry to report the passing of stalwart Pollok fan Gordon Peebles.

Gordon was well-known and respected among our community; as a vociferous supporter of the players on the field and as a dedicated and determined supporter of the club off the field.

He was a regular volunteer around Newlandsfield, bringing a great deal of expertise from his professional life maintaining golf courses, as well as a huge amount of physical graft.

Gordon travelled the length of the country following Pollok over many years, and will be badly missed by those who knew him.

Our deepest sympathies go to Mr Peebles’ family at this difficult time.

Our thanks to Mark Donnelly for providing the image below of Gordon Peebles, taken on the occasion of Pollok’s first senior Scottish Cup tie against St. Cuthbert Wanderers in 2007.
