    His legacy is living on through the generations. As long as the kids of today know who Fergus is, what he done for Celtic (and for them) them I am sure Fergus would prefer that to a statue. Compare and contrast him with the media darling "Sir" David Murray. I know who I prefer. Hail Fergus!!

    To this day I'm still baffled why anyone would boo this wee guy, he saved our club from going bust and that is just as important as brother walfrid, maybe more so if you can even comprehend life without my dearest celtic, maybe you have to be a certain kind of supporter of celtic to be negative towards him but for me he will always be celtic,s savour and that should always be remembered. Hail hail

    Well that mob on other side of Glasgow were in their ' for every 5er Celtic spent we will spend a 10er " Mr Murray was cheating to sign who they signed,Celtic would have seen that and obviously wanted us to do likewise, that's why Fergus got some stick unjustly, why risk Celtics future on a gamble

    Even at the time I was embarrassed and ashamed of the fans who booed McCann and wanted him out. He saved the club. Just look at what happened to Rangers when they spent insane amounts of money they didn't have.

    I wrote to Celtic FC, and requested that a Stand be named after him. I received a letter from Celtic (which I have); informing me that that would not happen-as there were others deserving of that honour, too. When I attended Old Firm games-years ago-I was in the West Terracing of Hampden; and the East End of Parkhead!

    I was unhappy about our football at the time, but lets not forget Celtic Park was a dump, it was old football. McCann had a plan and if that meant cutbacks so be it, he knew Celtic had to become a modern club, and needed a stadium that reflected that. I think 1998 was the birth of everything we enjoy now, many of the squad were made into heroes by Martin O'Neill. I remember a quote from another club that I witnessed in USA. A rich man wanted to start a team, the hired Director told him, you'll lose money for 5-10yrs. If you think its hard being a supporter sometimes, think about that.

    I was disappointed that Celtic copied Rangers by refusing to allow a sizable number of Rangers fans into the Old Firm games. 'Two wrongs do not make a right!' I remember in 1966 when the stadia were split 50/50 What an atmosphere!

    It didn’t say the biggest thing of all - avoiding the financial chicanery of David Murray later secured Celtic the 9-in-a-row of the 2010s. That’s good long-term values-led stewardship. Where is he now?

    The old Celtc Football & Athletic Company died in 1994. They once proudly had that name on their shirt, but no more. They don't even own their own pitch anymore either, which is held by a former Board Director. Celtc FC - 1888- 1994. RIP

    So did Murray and King and all the rest of them when Gordon Neely was doing the same at the crumbledome. But as King said that was the OLD RANGERS nothing to do with the new club. So GIRFUY. Your club covered it up and should be held accountable like every other club that was involved in these heinous crimes.
