John Boyle's parents were among the many impoverished Irish rural labourers who flocked to Scotland in the thirties and forties, eventually settling in a small Catholic community in the predominantly Protestant town of Paisley.

In 1955 John Boyle and James Lafferty became school friends. They both lived in Ferguslie Park, the worst housing scheme in Paisley. At the Academy, they felt ashamed of where they lived; yet in 'Feegie', in their school uniforms, they were mocked by the locals as 'snobs'. It made allies of them, but when Laff dropped out of school and left for exotic destinations in the Merchant Navy, it set the relationship on a course that would end in tragedy.
