Rangers could well bottle it tommorow, queen of south are 10/1 and 7/2 draw. For me its the most satisfying league win since 1998, when u consider we were supposedly out of it 6 weeks ago, and of course with tragic death of Tommy Burns. Was tough game last night aswell.

Scottish pal of mine was telling me that bookies paid out on Rangers a few weeks back, but then put up signs asking for punters to be "honest" and re-imburse the cash strapped bookie!  No word of a lie! Some hope......

Fair play to the Celts. Magnificent achievement considering the position they were in a few weeks ago

Fitting close to an emotional week, incredible scenes at Tannadice as Celtic took the SPL, Darren O'Dea was in tears!  Well done Celtic, 3 in a Row!

Very nice HM, sad day for Celtic FC.  I was reading Davie Provan's tribute on the Celtic website, he picked out the Juve game that I mentioned on this thread as Tommy's finest hour, I couldn't agree more with Davie.  Let's hope Tommy will help inspire victory on Thursday.

Little poem sent to me about Tommy;
 

Don't stand at my grave and weep,
Im in heavens Parkhead executive seat,
Im here with wee Jinky and the boss Jock Stein,
This is like Paradise you've never seen.

The beer runs free,the banter is great,
Fitbaw games are playing and the bars are open late,
Irish songs are chanting,The Fields of Athenry
Oh baby let the free birds fly.

Everyone is wearing the hoops of the green and white,
only the elite get in,there's no blue light in sight.
The huddle is just like a clone,
All i know is that I'l never walk alone.

God Bless Tommy Burns.

Very true donal, its great to see tributes from our old rivals, especially people like ally mccoist. Also at celtic park there are plenty of tributes from the descent rangers fans which is great to see. Was watching celtic tv the other night, was documentary about the double winning team of centenary year of 1988, at the end after the cup final win there was interview with tommy, where he said what a proud day it was and a big hello to his family. Nearly brought tear to the eye, tommy was a true genteleman from what i heard.

There was a nice tribute to Tommy Burns from Ally McCoist in the Daily Record. He said he had tears in his eyes when he heard the news. It just goes to show that there are more important things then football.

Its a shame. He was a really nice man when I met him at an IRELAND game.
May he rest in peace.
