Celtic legend that will never be forgotten
Tommy Burns was a midfielder, signed by Celtic in 1973 from his second club Maryhill, a junior team from Glasgow. He made his debut against Dundee United on 19 April 1975, and he was a vital part of the side which won the league and cup double in the club's centenary season, 1988. In total, he made 352 league appearances and scored 52 goals
Tommy was my personal favourite growing up If you define a Celtic man, it would certainly be Tommy Burns

A really nice humble guy he was.
"Tommy was Simply The Best"
I'm a Rangers man and had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know Mr Burns (I worked in a video shop in Newton Mearns that the Burns family used) and can honestly say he was one of the nicest people I ever met.Also,and less important,a great footballer.I now pass his gravestone everyday when out walking my dogs and can still hear him say "call me Tam "(I always called him Mr Burns).R.I.P Mr Burns.
Nice post.Thanks.
Good man
Thanks pal
Great man
I remember it well great respect to Rangers fans and Walter and Ally for their caring towards Thomas Burns the day it happened my good friend big yin Colin said shit Tommy Burns has passed away it was on radio and he was rangers to d Hart and he was sad about it Rangers and Celtic have big history but have respect for each other aways .
As a Liverpool man, even we all knew down here that Tommy was a true fan on the pitch. God bless you Tommy Burns.
I'm a rangers fan I live in Australia 🇦🇺 this made me cry God bless Tommy x
I'm a big Rangers fan who had the upmost respect for Tommy Burns, this was a man that led his life in a manner that we should all take a leaf out of, a very dignified human being

Some people are just so good they are loved across any divide - I'm a bear too but I regard him as a great great man who just played for the wrong team lol!
An amazing man. And a true Caltonian. And he was one of few Celtic players that really bridged the sectarian divide in Glasgow. most of the true rangers fans respected him. YNWA Tommy bhoy. HH RIP
As a true blue,he was a legend 🇬🇧
Beautiful mate!
it takes a good and wonderful person that being a true rival is capable of sayig that. All my respect to you Sir
Nice touch , RIP tommy
Gone but will be never be forgotten.rip tommy
Diffently Mate,
Great player, great man. RIP Tommy, from this Rangers fan.
Good man
I remember writing to him when I was about 14, wee Brian McLaughlins Mum had passed away and I asked Tommy to play him cos he maybe needed it, Brian scored and Tommy handwrote a letter back to me thanking me for picking the team. Will never forget that. Also I got my photo taken with him when I was about 5 on the pitch during his Testimonial against Liverpool, still have it framed. Cried when he died and crying now. He was my hero and like his daughter said, he makes you want to be a better person, even still I try and do what Tommy would do.
Some lovely comments from rangers supporters shows that this divided city of ours isn't all hell bent on religious hate the respect some have shown to TB is touching TB would have appreciated this especially from the other side Tam give Davie Cooper a big hug was you whisper into his ear Brendan Rodgers is here for 10 in a row Tommy you will never be forgotten.....Lennox town should be named the Tommy Burns facility after all he is the man who had the vision for it to be built & it has down rewards in KT James Forrest Callum McGregor Mikey Johnson to name but a few RIP Tommy rest easy ynwa hh
Once meet tommy at a hotel in Glasgow when I was about 14 didn't have a camera on me he waited till I went up to the room to get a camera for a photo top man a legend RIP tam
I'm a Rangers supporter but I always had a soft spot for Tommy Burns. Always a genuine guy and diplomatic with win lose or draw. A real winner. RIP Tommy. 💚💙

Tears in my eyes to this day watching this 😭💚 A supporter who got lucky 💚🍀💚🍀 miss you Tommy 💚💚
Tommy Burns What A Legend 8 Years Now God I Was 5 When Tommy Passed RIP HH Tommy,Fly High GBNF x💚🍀🍀
For any guy to play for his boyhood team must be a dream come true, in this case however, it REALLY was his prayers being answered. As a Rangers fan I seen him play many times and watched him manage the team he adored, I used to make fun of his faith but it was just that, making fun- not sectarian or hateful, just the banter. RIP TOMMY you're a legend to those who follow YOUR CLUB! Surely that is the greatest epitath for a true Celtic man?
I knew Tommy when I was a kid in St Ignatius Primary School, I was keeper in the school team, he was involved at our local church St Roberts Parish & he always had time for a kick about with the lads, a real role model
R.I.P Tommy, YNWA
Faith ...family ...football and friends ....this gentleman will never be forgotten. RIP Genius who lived and breathed Celtic all his life 🙏
Still is and always will be my favorite Celtic legend...
Me too. I remember my da taking me to my first game and he said who's your favourite? I said "tommy burns" he said wait till this young boy that's out injured plays. His name was Charlie nicholas. First game back nicholas scored a couple after it he asked again
"Tommy burns" was my answer. I dont know why (apart from being a great player) but there was always something about him
loved this man, when he spoke it made my hair stand on end, proper legend, celtic through and through god bless you🍀🍀
Miss you every day Mr. Celtic.
Always be Mr Celtic to me.
I'm not even a big football guy but I'm humbled by the attitudes and respect shown by both sides of the teams supporters for this man and his life. This is really what it's all about.
Never got to see Tommy Burns play for Celtic . But I know he was a legend in so many ways . A true gentleman , a great footballer . But most of all a wonderful human being . As an Englishman . I have a devoted love for Celtic football club . And I have it because of people like Tommy . RIP Legend .
a real man like myself iv never gave up on my lord and saviour jesus christ
Absolutely brilliant 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀❤️
This is an amazing story cry everytime I watch it,big respect to Walter and mccoist for carrying coffin ⚰ I think that brought dwn alot of tye hate between the clubs
It was a sad day when Tommy Burns passed away at such a young age. A genuinely classy guy and a great player for Celtic. All proper fans, including we of his rivals, can appreciate this legend of Scottish football.
The best Celtic team we rangers have played in my life time what team 95/96
A great man for all Scots. RIP Tommy.
Beautiful humble man YNWA God Bless Tommy 💚

A truely great celtic legend RIP TB
One of a minority who was so lucky to support, play, manage and coach his beloved team. Not many people will ever get that privilege. Still missed today. God bless
Hero!! RIP🙏🍀 TOMMY TWIST 'N' TURNS🍀HH 🍀🇮🇪🍀
A true celt, through and through, and an inspiration to all, God Bless Tommy, thank you for all the good times and memories you provided.
At Old Firm games, I really enjoyed watching Tommy, a player of pure class and also spoke the facts and a Gentleman at the same time. I know Davie Cooper was waiting to see Tam, when he went tae Heaven. For me, I loved the Rangers Celtic games, more than at any other time following the Rangers, at the period he played for his club, the old Celtic park was fantastic for the atmosphere, especially when he showed his sublime talent. And jeez, I was there in the Rangers end, when 10 men won the league, I was 13 at the time, that game broke my wee heart, I'm just glad there was a television cameraman strike at the time, so we didn't have to see it on the telly. I never forgave C Jackson for that own goal, with 13 mins to go. RIP TAM
I cried that night too but for different reasons I was up the celtic end but the tears were of happiness I to was 13 it was also the 1st championship I saw the tic clinch. ( it wouldn't be the last) just an all round gentleman liked by all in the game not many celtic/ rangers players get that sort of respect RIP Tommy YNWA HH
Ahh Tommy Burns praying at Holy Cross Church in Crosshill the same place all my family went to every Sunday...God Bless Tam Burns.
Mr. Mcoist was a pall bearer.. he loved Tommy, I hated ally scoring against us (Celtic).. but he’s a great guy tbh..
One of the Great Celtic players. That have truly united both halves of this city. HH Tommy bhoy RIP.
Above all and most important a good person, this world needs
Love this... A great story
What human being respect for his opponents his love for Celtic compassion empathy I just love him lots of great memories sadly missed RIP
The man was class.
What a gentleman,and football player, your name is eternal.

Very Well Said
amazing doc
Forget football for a min . This man was a true gentleman . One of life’s greatest . May Tommy Burns rest in peace
God bless the boy TB🍀🏴🇮🇪
Hail hail to a great man rip from me and the people who adored u tommy thanks
Tommy Burns, was a top fella even the Glasgow Rangers fans like myself thought so, he passed away far to soon. But when all is said and done Tommy got his dream to play for and manage Glasgow Celtic..a very respected man in Scottish football....if not the world...he can rest in peace knowing that ...❤❤❤❤❤
A wonderful man. Our Country would be so much better if there were more like him.
Like many players who have been lost to us they cross the divide to the real fans! Like Baxter and Jinky did who both where great friends and met regularly!
Tommy was a lovely guy, spent a few minutes having a talk to him years ago when he was promoting his book and book signing. He loved Celtic and Scotland. Both Rangers & Celtic fans together mourned ol Tam.
We Diffently Did
A Legend …in every sense Mr.Celtic.. as wee boy I still have vivid memories of him marauding down the wing with that mop of red hair flowing taking defenders on..R.l.P. Tommy Bhoy ☘️☘️☘️
he was true man and a hero
Thank you for that my4everscotlandcelticfc, think I might have had something in my eye watching this

I have no affiliation with Celtic or Scottish football in general but when the great man died I shed a tear and I am shedding one watching this...RIP Tam.
Am a Rangers fan but always had respect for Tommy Burns. 👍⚽️💚💙
I cried during this, hearing Ally and Walter specifically, just absolute class.
Tommy twists Tommy turns super Tommy burns hail hail RIP you will never walk alone
He was some crooner too lol great Mack the Knife in the intro Tommy mate 😉😂🍀💚 RIP pal, this doc had me greetin like a wee lassie.
Gone but never will be forgotten. Rip tommy
Still missed, I still wonder what he would think of us now. It wasn't just the player, it was the man that made him great! Missed and never forgotten Mr Burns. God bless you.
17 years later still missed Mr Celtic. Hope your up there with the greats of the past watching and cheering on Ange and the Bhoy’s. God bless TB YNWA 🍀💚
I met Tommy only once about 20 years ago...What a genuine guy....He and Billy McNeill approached US when we were renovating a club they were members of....A wee chat about fitba....fuckin' legends!
I got a letter from Tommy Burns in 1994 after writing to him. I never thought I would get a response. Also got me a signed photo from John Collins. ❤
Thank you for posting this !!
