JmSG Posted November 1, 2020 Report Share Posted November 1, 2020 Greetings to all, I hope you are fine, Remember Stuart Beedie playing for St. Johnstone? and what was its position in the field? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salguodinmethven. Posted November 1, 2020 Report Share Posted November 1, 2020 I remember him playing round about 82/84 ish. Seem to recall him being a midfielder, but that's a wild guess. Sure he was regular starter too and not a bad player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

south inch Posted November 1, 2020 Report Share Posted November 1, 2020 6 minutes ago, rik2304 said: This'll need some of the auld c*nts. Or Google, played for us 1981/84 as a midfielder. Seem to remember he was a steady enough player but we were not exactly setting the heather on fire at that time. Now involved in football management in Australia. Most famous for being instrumental in getting Souness sent off during a Hibs v Rangers game. The bold boy was playing for Hibs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crieffsaintandy Posted November 1, 2020 Report Share Posted November 1, 2020 Midfielder big powerful player, and think scored a few too, but was a decent player, was from Aberdeen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broggy Man Posted November 1, 2020 Report Share Posted November 1, 2020 Hooked Cammy Fraser on a foggy day only to turn round wee the ref standing next to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleepless Posted November 2, 2020 Report Share Posted November 2, 2020 He was a really good player in the Saints team that started sliding down the leagues. Went to Dundee United in about 1984, I think, and never made it as big as I though the would. Good, solid player and scored some useful goals.

rinky dink Posted November 2, 2020 Report Share Posted November 2, 2020 He scored a last minute winner against Dundee on a really foggy day at Muirton in the 80's I'm sure I remember the celebrations came with bruises... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave mc Posted November 2, 2020 Report Share Posted November 2, 2020 Scored away to Hibs on his debut in a league cup section game,after super Ally scored a worldy,we went on to beat Celtic In the section too,but didn’t qualify. He was signed as Ally’s replacement iirc,as he left quite soon after this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JmSG Posted November 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 The only information I can find about his position is ... Left-side Midfielder, which I don't know is correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll answer your question, since you haven't commented on my post. Answer- several times , probably more away than home. His 1st game was a friendly away to Dundee Utd. where Utd. Won 4-0. (Beedie wore no.8 shirt). Next game McCoist started in the no. 8 shirt with Beedie no.9 . Both scored in a 2-1 away win to Hibs in the League Cup.(McCoist also scored in the next 3 games) 12/08/81--Wore no.9 shirt (for the last time) in the next game at home , defeating Celtic 2-0 in the L C. Scorers McCoist and sub. Morton. Didn't feature again till 07/10/81, away to Hearts in a 3-1 defeat. Morton got Saints goal. Wore no.11 this game and the next. His next game on 07/11/81 in the no.7 shirt was away to Clydebank, who won 3-1. Morton for Saints. After a run of 10 games, scoring twice in the process , was replaced by O'Brien for 3 games , back for 1 game in the no.7 Jersey. Following game (a run of 4) appeared in no.4 shirt for the 1st time, then reverted to no. 7 for next 11 games, till the end of season 81/82. 82/83 season in no.4 & 11 shirt and one as no.10. Shirt numbers in times gone by usually indicated the position on the pitch where you operated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I did not get to see the guy play, due to work commitments and having just got married , so I bow to your knowledge, as a matter o interest when did you get back up the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, collecting the data, played with a lot of numbers (4,7,8,9,10 and 11) what I would say that he played everything except defense, as long as your number matches your position. It could be classified as a Box to Box Mid, Left-Handed, therefore could it also play as Left-Mid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
