    Dont care now TBH. Whatever reputation he had as a player, he has totally ruined it in my eyes after his shambolic display as our manager.

    He scored against the huns. That makes him good enough for me:50:

    I was just wondering because from his managerial spell with us i couldn't really imagine him ever being a player. He seems really timid so i can't imagine him being a no nonsense defender.

    He was a big solid centre half who would quite happily dished out a bit of pain to the opposition. Similar to john Hughes. He came up with the idea of doing the huddle to show some solidarity with the fans as it was a really * period in the clubs history

    He was the player who started the huddle and it's iconic now.

    Alot of people give players the excuse "personal stuff" going on in their lifes,as a get out for poor play.

    Tony Mowbray would have went through the worst personal problems any of us could ever imagine.

    don't think its fair to judge him by his managerial career here.from what people say he was a great player who gave his all for us.have sympathy for him the way last season went

    ive got a celtic legends book and hes one of the first players they talk about in it, but he completely ruined it, any positive memories of him will forever be overshadowed with the memory of what he did to us as a "manager"

    He was a solid wholehearted player. When he signed he declared to the media "I'm going to be Celtic's Mr Nasty"

    On his debut at CP he rattled the crossbar with a 40 screaming shot and he played some good games for us. Including some solid games V Rangers and Hately...he even scored a goal v Rangers. Overall he was a bit above average but was nothing really special.

    Mogga was a brilliant no nonsense centre back for us, actually just the type we are crying out loud for now.
