    @danielecampolo2203 I am a Rangers fan from a boy to man. My mum was Catholic and a celtic fan. She died at 37 of cancer. Its great to see true fans putting religion aside for true human beings. Like Davie cooper and Tommy burns. Glasgow is not Glasgow without Rangers and Celtic.

    Coming from the guy who used to noise me up at work in Celtic park when I was corporate bar supervisor calling me "Gaffer & Boss" I'll never forget the day going into Celtic park to do the shift rota,I'll never forget the feeling of huge loss and the emptiness that surrounded me in Celtic park! That was one day I didn't want to go and set up staff shifts! You'll never be forgotten by me and the daily laughs we had together! God bless you "Gaffer"! YNWA💚

    What a special day, for a special man. An example to all in how to live our lives with respect, understanding and forgiveness for others. I pray that the example he set helps to soften a few hearts, and that an era of mutual respect, results in a living memorial to Tommy. May Mother Mary wrap you in her arms and carry you through the gates of Paradise, to the reward you so richly deserve.

    from soho st where he began his story,to a trophy winner,many times,but not one to take the glory. he was loved by so many and gave so much too,always took the time to ask "how are you?" a long career with celtic,then for the hoops he played no more, he left us with a smile,but was soon back through the door. this time as gaffer when still he seemed so young, playing games the celtic way,it seemed he'd only just begun.

    Seeing Walter and Ally so upset and brave yesterday,coupled with the many scores of Gers fans who turned up to pay condolences,has made me re-evaluate my attitudes towards Rangers. At least,for me,there is a new day dawning!I feel cured of my deep-seated resentment and disdain towards the rangers establishment which has always been part of me.

    It is unfortuante but there will always be a minority who know no better than to draw attention to themselves with vile comments. Tommy Burns, thank you for having shown us decency and passion in a city where blue and green have been divided by hatred. We can overcome hatred, bigotry and plain simple stupidity of the kind demonstrated by GrimReaper.

St Mary's is NOT in Cumbernauld. U fool. and further more. St Mary's is the spiritual home of Glasgow Celtic. As that's were brother walfrid started Celtic football club. You know nothing of what u say. So pls do ur homework before u talk pure shit.

    What part of your culture is being denied to you Jim? We live in a secular society where all religions are tolerated and even embraced. As I can gather you are a scottish practising protestant. What bastion of our society holds you back? Please help me understand. Who or what persecutes you and curtails your civil liberties? Please articulate how I, as a catholic, do that? And remember we are both christian. I don't hate you.

    Among most people royalty would be a bit of a joke these days, and unionism or independence would be a good subject for a lively debate. But in torbs world the if your not a queen loving loyal unionist your a traitor- so even the snp get it. Scotland's proud history as an independent nation before the union is ignored. This mentality can only come from the under-siege fanaticism of the extreme ulster loyalists. No doubt he learned it at an early age.

As Tommy burns was and is still loved by both sets of fans. Or the vast majority of right minded fans. Just coz ur a Celtic fan doesn't give you the final say on who can say things out of respect for the great man. Get a fuckin life ffs
