 Grant Bannerman


Grant BannermanI have supported the Jags since 1969.

My Grandfather took me and a cousin to all the games and got us our first season tickets.

There has been a long family involvement in the club with one grandfather being a Director and the other side of the family supplying all medical and physio supplies through Bannerman's Pharmacy in Maryhill Rd.

Between 1971 and 1975 I was a ballboy. My first game was against Kilmarnock on the Saturday before The League Cup Semi-Final against Falkirk.

Have had a season ticket every year since 1985/86 having suffered a break through living in London from 1983-1985.

Became secretary of the Partick Thistle Business club and worked as a member of the testimonial committees for both Alan Morgan and John lambie.

Took over the family business from my Father in 1996 having worked with him for 4 years and continued building the business until it was sold in 2004.

Became a PTFC Director in 2005 and now work in property owning companies involved in letting and developing residential property around Glasgow.

Currently live in both Glasgow and Surrey and have 2 children, Jamie and Sarah who both consider themselves Jags Fans.
