    Some Bhoy our Tommy, absolutely loved him to bits.

    So sad and scary to think he was only 51, ffs.

    It's weird but all the special Tommy. Moments, the one that sticks in my mind is that Boruc pk save and him jumping on the group of players.

    I always get a wee lump in my throat whenever people talk about Tommy Burns. I can just imagine what he would say to those who aren't currently pulling their weight at the club he loved so much

    Its a grand old team to play for
    Proper Celtic Legend. Left with his head held high, unlike this charlatan we have now.

    Can we not use this great man as a stick to beat others with. Pretty sure that's the last thing he would want :shamrock:

    Imagine * never took this man so young. Could imagine him taking over at the time Ronny did. Watching him build a team in his style during the nine in a row era would have been phenomenal. Rest in peace Tommy.

    No point in what ifs, as much as I wish that was something that could have happened, what he done for us is still beyond incredible. Lennoxtown should be named the Tommy Burns Academy, don’t think anyone would disagree with it.


    The epitome of a Celtic man.
