When Harry Met Benji

Harry Milne was presented with the McCrea Financial Services Play of the Month award for November – by one of the young fans who cheers him from the John Lambie Stand on home match days.

The presentation of our latest monthly award, proudly sponsored by McCrea Financial Services, saw us swap Firhill for Finnieston, taking place at Àrd Sgoil Ghàidhlig Ghlaschu (Glasgow Gaelic Secondary School).

Season ticket holder and pupil Benji Bell, 16, was chosen by the school to present Harry with his award, pose for pictures and listen in to our pre-match press conference as our number three prepared to return to Cove.

We are very grateful to McCrea Financial Services for supporting the club’s wider Gaelic language initiative and we also thank the school and in particular Benji for being such great hosts on the day.

Gillian Campbell-Thow, Headteacher at Àrd Sgoil Ghàidhlig Ghlaschu, said: “As a school we are delighted to be taking forward our partnership with Partick Thistle and the chance for our young people to engage with such positive role models.”

Harry made a great impression on Benji, who added: “Harry is a great guy as well as a great player. I’m looking forward to hearing Harry’s Gaelic language the next time he is here and he could even help out in PE. I’m really grateful to have had the opportunity to present Harry with the award.”
