From Caley Nostalgia page: http://www.caledonianfc.co.uk/players.htm

The Legend, and scorer of countless (well at least 401) goals for the Blues. Billy spent the years from 1978 to 1981 with Rangers then Wigan Athletic, sandwiched between two spells at Caley. He won 6 League medals and 6 Qualifying Cup medals with Caley amongst a total haul of 25, and scored 17 times in the "Scottish". Given that Billy represented the Blues 637 times his place in the hearts of the Caley support is assured. That's why, when you log on to the Caley Nostalgia Page, the first image you see is The Legend scoring against Elgin. What a guy.

    · SFL Third Division · Firs Park, Falkirk

    This game started badly for Caley Thistle when they lost a goal in 2 minutes. The goal came as a result of a poor defensive clearance from a Robert Lee shot - it fell to Geraghty who blasted the ball high into the net. Veteran…
