    Met him at a signing session at HMV at the top of Buchanan street, a few years ago. Quality player and a great guy.

    Just bossed defenders. Imagine trying to mark him, * me.

    Huns, Diets, Liverpool, Celta Vigo. And his passion for us is undeniable. Two DVDs are great.

    Mate ma ended up with a pair of his shorts from the "black magic" strip - 3 XL.

    You forget how much of a strike this was in real time. So used to the slow replays but he * smashed it home!

    He's a lovely person IMO. I think he's a bit naive at times; but his heart is always in the right place.
    Great to see him looking so well.

    His goal against Liverpool was something else, what it meant, who it was against just everything about it.

    One of, if not my favourite goals ever for Celtic.

    Loved big bad John. Remember the media jizzing themselves with delight when he never scored in his first few games. That worked out well for the Hun loving * :)

    Quality guy and a brilliant player.

    His goal against Liverpool is one of my all time favourites.

    Highly recommend his book 'Please Don't Go: Big John's Journey Back to Life'.

    Yeah he's looking great these days,one thing I like about him is he always says what he thinks and sticks to it,totally different to Walker and Nicholas who sold their souls for £££.
