Story
Im hoping to help my Uncle Ricky save his beloved club and life Johnstone Burgh FC in the club's precarious position and a hope of survival
Money is tight. They incur costs every year with the rent of the ground but they also have to carry out their own maintenance work.
Recent fundraising events have been used to pay off debts that they had instead of being used as an advance for next season to help with the budget.
The Burgh were founded in 1956 and have enjoyed their fair share of glory days, lifting the Junior Scottish Cup back in 1964 and 1968. The side’s heyday came in the 60s, with future St Mirren star Hugh Gilshan a regular goalscorer for the Keanie Park side.
Frank McAvennie was another who made his name with the Johnstone club, catching the eye before a move to St Mirren. McAvennie would go on to star for Celtic, West Ham United and Scotland in the 80s and early 90s.
Please if you can help towards their target and donate even £1
Every penny will go a long way and be very much appreciated
Thanks
