    Me too JVOH, from when he first signed. Was so excited on his debut day i went to the game and knew he would come on and do some good.

    Must have sent in about 6 questions for him in the Celtic View, just so one would get put in and it did. :D

    Well before I was a member on here though.

    Can't say I have one, if I like a player there will be a reason.

    Maybe the closest would be Caldwell, looking back he maybe wasn't the greatest defender but I still believe to this day his long passing ability and vision for a centre half was vastly under rated.

    Wee Brian McLaughlin. He had a hard team to get into under Tommy Burns. Wikipedia said he played a lot of games under Burns but im pretty sure he was a sub most of them. :97:

    Mark Wilson, I like him and think he's good but a lot of people dont. The opposite of him would be Barry Robson I never liked him and thought he was average but a lot of people like him.

    Had a wee soft spot for Lee Naylor actually. Wasn't the best defender in the world but I admired him for never hiding when the fans were on his back and always getting stuck in.

    Donati, he always gave it his all and when he played cosistently he was one of our best players, TM made a huge mistake selling him

    no matter how pish naylor was at times, he made up for it by keeping his chin up and doing his absolute best to prove the support wrong

    although he did fail and ultimately was released because of how pish he was...

    I liked him and i would have picked him but you beat me to it.I think he made wee Jackie that season ,Jackie won player of the year but Annoni played behind him and they bounced off each other ,a hard bassa aswell with a cheeky grin.:50:
