    It was great, and every bit like @PaulM1888 said he would be like. I said I can't believe this you guys are legends, they should have sent you one of the mercs or Audis not my berlingo lol, JC said relax we are just regular guys. And they spoke about old times restraunts and bars whilst we cut through the town.

    The first time I met bertie was stood beside him at the urinal in the hospitality suite at CP when we played Benfica a few year ago.

    Had a full blown conversation about big Bobo whilst stood doing a *. Wee Bertie told me it was terrible how Balde was treated and was desperate to play for us when he was frozen out for * all, other than his wages were wanting cut out.

    I picked up a French girl last year who said that she worked for Celtic as a 1st team player asst firstly with the big man and she pretty much said the same, she spoke very highly of him, she then worked for maf.
    Got a picture up in the loft of wee Bertie holding my Shaun as a baby on the 40th anniversary, at a book signing;!he was good craic then also. Big Billy didn't fancy holding him but Bertie was full of the banter and obliged, willie Wallace and big Tommy Gemmell :rip_1::shamrock:were there also

    Fantastic.

    I've had the absolute privilege of Bobby Lennox's company at a few golf outings and had a chance meeting with Billy McNeil three years ago. My other half couldn't understand the buzz I had off meeting them.

    They say don't ever meet your heroes, but quite genuinely my estimations on those two went up after meeting them.
