    heartbreaking story, felt like it was a family member and that it was a family member who had survived the struggle.

    Hi,
    As a few of you know, I had a 'Private Signing' with John in August, and he was telling me about this book. Sounds a great read, but in John's own words "Very hard hitting". The DVD that is released, is an Update on his original Celtic Dragon DVD. It contains the original footage along with all that has happened to John since. It is much longer than the original.
    If you can make it along to the Celtic shop on Monday, it will be well worth it. John's a great guy and nothing is ever to much trouble for the fans.

    Fantastic every time i see that liverpool goal the hairs on my neck stand up I pure love the big guy, celta goal was out of this world too, if he made the final we could have done it he was on fire to he got his back injury
    He got no hair but we dont care walking in a hartson wonderland
