Gary Beggan has a large collection of Willie’s photographs – all in black and white and all showing a knowledge and love of the sport.   The range is wide and many, but not nearly all, are of his clubmates at Springburn.  We start with club legend Harry Gorman 1st VET (and club president at the time) Springburn Harriers Club Cross Country Championships on 5th March, 1994.
