All at Partick Thistle Football Club were deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Richard Wright on Saturday following a short illness.
Born in Dennistoun, Richard moved to Maryhill when he was just two years old and quickly fell in love with the Jags, climbing over the wall to get in and watch his heroes before he could afford to pay for a ticket himself.
He followed Thistle passionately through the good and the bad for over 60 years with his personal highlights being the 1971 League Cup success and the John Lambie years.
The thoughts of everyone at the club are with Richard’s family and friends at this difficult time.
Rest in peace, Richard. Once a Jag, always a Jag.
