    If you could travel back to see a player from the past at the absolute best who would it be and why?

    Obviously, I'd consider all the Lisbon Lions, Jimmy McGrory, Patsy Gallagher, John Thompson, Billy McPhail, Neilly Mochan - the list would be endless but the player I would pick if it had to be one would be Charlie Tully.

    My reason for picking Celtic's cheeky Charlie is because he's the reason I'm addicted to Celtic.

    I used to love hearing stories of Charlie's exploits from my gran and her brothers and would beg them endlessly to take me to see Celtic so as I could see someone like that, eventually they did and 24 years later I totally addicted.

    So who would you have liked to see play?

    JJ on the wing. I'd also like to have seen Danny McGrain at his rampaging best and I'm told Bobby Murdoch's range of passing was a sight to behold so him as well.

    Bobby Murdoch - I've read that he was absolute pure class.

    Also would have liked to have seen Patsy Gallacher, even just to see how the * such a wee guy managed to dance through defences wearing those big * brown fitbaw boots they used to wear back in the day!
