    A SCULPTURE of Tommy Burns was supposed to be unveiled on the day of the his tribute match in his memory, I know that the unveiling of the sculpture was postponed. Does anyone know if the unveiling has taken place since then? or if there is a future date set to do it. I am just curious to see pictures of it, i hope it is a fitting tribute. I would also love celtic to name the lennoxtown training facility after the great man. What do people think?

    Totally agree,Tommy was instrumental in setting up Lennoxtown and it would be a fitting tribute to name it after him,i know its been mentioned a few times but nothing seems to have hapened,perhaps a petition would put a bit of weight behind it ?

    If you put it at the training ground only a fraction of people would see it compaired to out side the ground.
