John Thomson was a Scottish footballer who played as a goalkeeper for Celtic and the Scotland national football team. He died as a result of an accidental collision with Rangers player Sam English during an Old Firm match at Ibrox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donaldo87 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Huge win today but we nearly threw it all away! Think that's the top 6 sorted out position by position now. Fixtures next weekend could easily see Dundee and ICT adrift with everyone else on 35 but obviously it won't go that way as it never does  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had 2 international caps for Northern Ireland. They either do this for all random proud young Protestants who briefly played for them 80 years ago or they are celebrating him predominately due to the incident that killed the Celtic keeper. No idea which one it would be... Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AberdeenAngus Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 (edited) 3 deserved points for the Dons at Perth. Should have been  further ahead than the 2 at half time. Saints came back into it courtesy of a soft penalty and despite taking more of the game to Aberdeen in the 2nd half they never looked like equalising. Edited April 15, 2017 by AberdeenAngus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do, but the swear filter will remove them. Whoever brought that in should be utterly ashamed of themselves and banned from Ibrox for life. Pathetic wee boys trying to be controversial but just embarrassing the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty CTA Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 I can't verify this, but I can remember my Uncle telling me (many years ago) that English was so overcome by grieve at the funeral procession that he had to be carried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea on that Scotty but he was never the same player again and retiring at 28 when not injured is highly unusual. The only things I've read on this all say he was deeply affected despite Thomson's family exonerating him of any blame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you imagine going to work / playing a game of football and killing somebody by accident? You'd be devastated. The banner is very poor taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
