    One of a few heroes of mine. Loved the guy. I had the privilege of knowing the man some years back - lovely man and I am gutted!

    My lasting memory of Tommy will be him going mental and almost flattening Billy Stark when Paulo Di Canio equalised against the huns at Ibrox. Unfortunately we never won that game or the league when Tommy was in charge, but by * you could tell what it meant to him. You see he loved Celtic and everything the club stands for, yet he still detested sectarionism. Proof two aren't linked. Not only was he a great Celtic man, he was simply a great man.
    Rest in Peace Tam.

    Met Tommy a few times, the first time was at a Kilmarnock open day. My dad took me and my brother down to Rugby Park in our Celtic tracksuits and we met and talked to Tommy and Billy Stark. I will always remember that day. Will need to get the photo's from my mum and upload them. I also have photo's of Tommy holding my eldest boy when he was only 10 days old. Such a gentleman any time a I've met him and always had time for a chat or a photo.

    You will be sorely missed Tommy, you live on in all our hearts.

    I've had all day to think about this and only now can I even think about putting it all into words.

    After I heard the news this morning I went directly to Celtic Park and laid a strip and scarf. I've never done anything like that before, normally I don't go for that kind of thing but this morning I was compelled.

    For me, Tommy was Celtic. I started going in 1985 he was in the team and quickly became one of my favourite players and when he returned as manager in 1994 it was the first year I bought a season ticket. His presence at the club in one capacity or another has been almost constant during my life.

    Just watched the clip of him being interviewed after winning the Cup in 1995. 'The fans can go and have a great night and I love every one of them'...the feeling was mutual.

    He represented everything that is good about Celtic.

    YNWA Mr.Celtic
