Re: Tommy Burns dies.

One true gentleman. Such a genuinely nice individual. I remember when he left as manager of Celtic, he choose to leave by the front door with his head held high rather than the sidedoor offered to him. Dignifed to the end. The curse of cancer strikes again.

Really was a legend. I was lucky to meet him once after a Celtic match a few years ago.

Top bloke.
