BigC Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 I was told last night that Gary Mackay was also there the other day. Also, he is too shy (Sinky, shy) to be brought onto the pitch at a game....but folk are still trying to convince him!! Gary visited a couple of weeks ago and game him a radio. He may have been back since. If Sinky does make it to the Killie game it will be a very special day for him. There are a lot of people trying to make it happen, but ultimately it will depend on the doctors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaun.lawson Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 If anyone ever wanted to know why football is important, here it is on this thread.

Miller Jambo 60 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I'd like to pass a message fromm Sinky. He has been genuinely humbled by all the attention,visitors,cards and messages of goodwill.He honestly cant believe so many people care about him.These photo's are printed with Sinky's blessing,(orders) and he hopes everyone enjoys seeing them. Everyone from Jefferies,lockie,Clare Cowan,the staff at Marie Curie,myself and several other mates are doing our utmost to get him to the Kilmarnock game next saturday.rudi has promised him a goal if he makes it to the game....here's hoping. The wee man is a jambo through and through. All the wee guys luv him and me. A legend of a fan. Dougstar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Wiseau Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I never knew that I knew who Sinky was until those photos went up - seen him at many an away game giving it some great patter. Cracking pictures as well, especially that one with Rudi. All the best for the lad, hope he makes the Killie game. Good to see the club trying to look after one of our own as well.

va va voom Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Knew of Sinky because of his comedy exploits as a fan. Met him when he came into my work, and he was always a good laugh and loved winding us up, as well as us winding him up, normally related to his footwear. Anyway, cracking to see all the pics of his visitors. All the best wee man and lets hope to see you at the Killie game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.N.T.H. Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Said it already on this thread but wish Sinky all the best. Known him from many away trips with Hearts over the years and always brought a smile with his Jambo antics. If he's at the Marie Curie, then i have visited there when my father was there and can say that the staff are absolutely fantastic. Please donate to the wee woman who frequents pubs in Gorgie/town on matchdays fund-raising for MC Fairmilehead as it really is a great cause. PS. Hope they allow him to get to the Killie game and get him on at half time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wibble Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Brings a lump to the throat to see how many people from the club and around the club have gone to see how he's doing. Sinky deserves it after all the energy he's put into supporting the club, but there are plenty of footballers who wouldn't bother. Well done to the club, Gary M, Robbo & all.

One of the nicest guys I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. When I worked at the Sainsbury's in Blackhall, he used to come in a fair bit. I was outside pushing trolleys one time, freezing cold day, and got a tap on the shoulder. Big Gilles had seen me and gone out of his way to walk across the car park to see how I was doing. I'd only spoken to the guy twice, but he still took the time. Gentleman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When i was a young pup playing at being Jimmy from Quadrophenia and delivering stuff round the West End, Big Giles always used to let onto me in Alva Street (where he stayed i think) whenever i was passing him. Him and his family were absolute diamonds. In the age of playboy superstar footballers it warms the heart that a lot of players have been into see the wee man, especially the foreign guys. That is a true mark of class and one that will not be forgotten here. Keep on keeping on Sinky wee man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
