Kmcalpin Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 Sad news about Jackie McInally. He was a decent player and signed from Kilmarnock. I remember him as an old fashioned inside forward. Condolences to his family and friends. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Dosser Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 Strangely, I was reminiscing about him with a Killie fan yesterday before I heard the news. First time I saw him (for Killie) was in an Accies V Kilmarnock cup game at old DP. Tommy McLean was playing and looked about 12. Even then Jackie was a fascinating player to watch once he got into his stride: his daddy-long-legs almost bruised his chin as he went on one of his bull-in-a-china-shop-runs. When he came to us and I saw him every week, he became one of my favourites: you always thought he could make something happen. My memories of him always make me smile: a great character who unfortunately lived at a time when Scotland had a plethora of great players in that position. Thanks, Big Jackie, never forgotten. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sinjy Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Anyone else remember the chant that went around Fir Park? McInally-Hoy, McInally-Hoy McInally,McInally Hoy Hoy Hoy? One of my favourite players from the late sixties. Very sad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Dosser Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 And I am reliably informed, Sinjy, that the chant at Rugby Park was, "McInally, McInally, Jake, Jake, Jake..." Jackie was an original in anyone's language. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
