Originally posted by johncorrigan View PostTommy Gemmell, left back with Celtic's Lisbon Lions, has passed on just two months away from the 50th anniversary of his greatest triumph. Gemmell was one of Celtic's two scorers when Jock Stein's team beat the million pound team of Inter Milan in 1967, 2-1. Gemmell who was a fiery individual, was also known as a real joker. It's a sad week for Scottish football after the announcement this week that his Captain on that momentous day, Billy McNeill, has dementia, the inference being made that his prowess as a great header of the ball may have caused his downfall. I imagine that there will be armbands at Parkhead on Saturday when the Buddies arrive for their Cup visit.

Let's all have a disco!!
Great round up ER. Many thanks. Hard keeping up with the goals at Saints games right now.
As far as I can see, the only reason the results ae described as classified , is because they are read out by division, as opposed to something like the local news, where for instance Saints are lumped in with portsmouth, unbelievably.
The Championship Playoffs are looking likely to be fun, if Huddersfield, Dirty leeds and the Owls make it.
Shame the Buddies couldn't build on their great win over Hibs.
What on eath was going on at Didcot?I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.
I am not a number, I am a free man.
