scsibear 4 Posted March 13, 2006 What can I say about our greatest ever player, this is a sad day for all true Celtic supporters. I had the priviledge of seeing wee Jinky play on more that one occasion, also later in life when he retired from football he became a driver for a company in Glasgow whom I worked for and then met him personally quite a few times. He still had some hair then He will be sadly missed ..... scsi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,647 Posted March 14, 2006 The best Celtic Player of all time. Debateable I'd say. Absolute genius, I stand by the comment about what's on 'Lord of the Wing' but sometimes it's obvious that even his team mates are struggling to work out what he's going to do next. Most skilful player maybe, greatest would depend on how much of a team player he was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
