My dad passed away over the weekend, he was just short of 83.

Unlike probably most of you, I was a Celt before him, the trainer of our football team who happened to be our parish priest was Celtic daft and had all the kids turned onto Celtic so it took me a while to get him on board as he just liked watching any football game.

He only came over three times with me to CP, he wouldn't fly but it was just as well as he never really understood the tensions that exist between Celtic and some of the other clubs. He would talk to anybody which led to some nervous encounters where I thought he would get me lynched, I was the one wearing the colours.

Being thrown out of my own house when Celtic were on the box the routine I had was to arrive at my dads with a fish & chip and a six pack of guinness for him and we watched the match together.

It will seem very strange next season, I won't know what to do with myself.

Sorry for hijacking the thread, I felt the need to put a few words down and this seemed like the right place to do it.
So sorry for your loss mate.

Brings back memories. I have a pic with Big Roy - going by the gear he's wearing in that pic it might even been taken on the same day.

I got banned from the football training by the Hamilton goalie (Ricky something??? - beardy at the front with the yellow top) we turned up late and he started shouting at me and my mate Ger who just happened to be at Butlins in the same week. We called him all the bastards under the sun - banned!!!

Ricky Ferguson. If you look closely he is wearing the England u/21 jersey he swopped when playing as an over age player in 1977.

Thats him. Miserable so and so...

I was wondering what the top was, and your right it is an England goalie top from the 70's...also worn by Ray Clemence while getting nutmegged by Dalglish at Hampden :)

Sorry to hear about your loss.

My Dad passed away 8 years ago and I still find it hard to get over some days (don't want to make you sad, but missing someone shows how much they meant to you).

My brother and me were brought up going to the Jungle and standing next to the floodlight legs, so my Dad could go into the Jungle proper with his mates, and then get us on the way out. Next stop was sitting outside the pub with a bunch of other kids eating our bag of crisps and the odd bottle of coke or whatever else. After they had a few pints picked us back up from outside with the rest of the kids then back home on the train to Johnstone (I lived up the Castle if anyone knows Johnstone well).

My Dad was from Maryhill, and played with Maryhill Harp the same time as Bertie Auld. My uncle was one of the coach’s for the Harp and always tells the story how the Celtic Scouts were coming along one specific game to watch my Dad, but he didn't show for the game and they picked Bertie instead. My Dad would always end up going to the toilet every time my Uncle started the story. My Uncle didn't have a good word to say about Bertie, but I think it was really more out of frustration because he said my Dad was a far better player than Bertie, but did admit he was a lazy bugger who would miss training and the odd game.

Sorry to take over your post, but just wanted to say that it’s those special memories of your Dad that will never be forgotten.

If your dad was on a par with Bertie, we missed out on a cracking player :thumbsup:
