    Nice mate, I know many like you from that era.

    I'm probably just a little older than you and can remember McStay in his pomp and he was always my favourite. JC was better than him for large spells of the 90s though.

    Love Collins, watching him score some wonderful goals for us and them free kicks against oldco, with the new predator boots * class.

    He was a better player than any of our current CMs. In fact I think only Lambo was as good in modern times.

    Hopefully John and Ronny will be a good fit, last thing celtic need is a conflict in the dressing room. Welcome Home John!!!:50:

    Delighted with the appointment, loved him when he played with us and was a favourite of mine. Bags of experience and knowledge from his travels too.

    Starting to get really excited about next season :50:

    I welcome John Collins as our new number 2 to Ronnie . This could be the start of another wonderful era for us . On paper we have the makings of a good football squad and also a good first team coach/management .
    We don't win anything on paper , just hoping everyone is on the one team sheet .

    Hopefully he just focuses on players Fitness because I think that is where he has had most of his success as a coach.
