    Following on from random sightings of fellow Tims across the world whats the weirdest place you've every seen a Celtic player.

    A few years ago my wee sister was doing a Shakespeare play in the Citizens Theatre, The Tempest, with half the kids coming from Scotland and the other half from Africa. It wasn't in the big room so only about 50 -60 people fit in and sat on benches round the show. Just before the show starts in strides Bobo Balde and takes a seat opposite us.

    TBH I never associated Bobo with The Bard but he seemed to enjoy himself.


    Note; bookies and golf course sightings not accepted. :84:

    I * you not, Hartley was in front of me at the bank machine in Princes Square a few days before he signed for us. When I realised it was him I said id wish he'd sign for us, he laughed and walked away!

    The Celtic squad (and John * Barnes) at the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem a few years back. Managed to get a few words with big Morton who was superb to me and the old dear and even took her camera from her and organised pics of her with a load of the players (and Barnes)

    If only I knew then that Barnes would be responsible for every Tic fan wailing a few months later I would have nutted the * :31:

    John Hartson & Neil Lennon came into Rufus T Firefly's on Hope St, steaming drunk and Hartson slipped down the 3 stairs on the way to the door after a few drinks! I think he actually injured his back as he wisnae playing that weekend.


    Managed to get thier autographs on a napkin but lost the thing :31: I remember saying to Lennon 'well in mate, I love the way you give every * stick wish every tim did that' he laughed and I offered to buy them drinks and Hartson said 'No chance' and his mate/minder bought me one :icon_mrgreen:

    Legendary night.
