Famous Players
Alan Hansen - Right from the start Sauchie has provided many players who became seniors - including three who became full Scottish Internationalists - Alan Hansen (Partick Thistle and Liverpool), his brother John (Partick Thistle) and Joe Craig (Partick Thistle and Celtic). Jim Wallace went to Dunfermline and won Scottish under 23's and League Caps. More recently Paul McHale moved to Cowdenbeath then Clyde and is now at Dundee.
George Connelly - One other Internationalist player who gave great service to the Club was George Connelly of Celtic, but unlike the others, Sauchie was his last club, not his first.

Famous quotes containing the words famous and/or players:
“Celebrity-worship and hero-worship should not be confused. Yet we confuse them every day, and by doing so we come dangerously close to depriving ourselves of all real models. We lose sight of the men and women who do not simply seem great because they are famous but are famous because they are great. We come closer and closer to degrading all fame into notoriety.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“Will you see the players well bestowed? Do you hear, let them
be well used, for they are the abstracts and brief chronicles of the time. After your death you were better have a bad epitaph than their ill report while you live.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
