The image captures a moment of camaraderie and nostalgia as these football enthusiasts reminisce about the glory days. Jock Shaw, still dedicated to the sport even in his later years, continues to train twice a week with Baillieston Juniors. Remarkably, he is only 2lb heavier than he was during his playing days. With an unwavering belief in his abilities, Jock still thinks he could stay the pace and last the distance on the field. The photograph exudes warmth and happiness as they gather in their garden surrounded by greenery. It's evident that both men have found solace not just on the football pitch but also amidst nature's beauty through gardening. This snapshot offers a glimpse into a bygone era when football held immense importance in people's lives. The dedication shown by Jock Shaw serves as an inspiration for all sports enthusiasts who continue to pursue their passion despite advancing age.
