| tommy burns
been scouring about the net for a while now so I figured it's time someone should post this
there's a strong rumour that tommy burns has passed away
from the ta board
"Still to be confirmed but my mum just got a phonecall from yogi hughes (lisbon lion) saying that Tommy Burns has lost his battle with skin cancer and passed away."
apparently celtic are to hold a press conference tomorrow
as I said..it's just rumours and speculation..but it is rife
I'll hold out on condolences until it's confirmed |

As I said elsewhere, the talk of this was sweeping round the Celtic end of the game tonight. Still not seen any official confirmation yet. | |

Hubbys just said the same rumour coming from his Follow Follow board, but nothing firm anywhere. Seems to be just rumour so far | |

Please someone delete this outta respect.
Shouldn't be rumours about this shite
Irrespective of whether it is true or not, it's highly insensitive to his family until it's confirmed by them.

Anno, we're talking about a seriously ill man here, as if he's already dead.
Mental.

I'm doing my best not to crack an Andy Goram joke here, just in the off-chance this isn't bullshit.

Eh. He's been dead for nigh on two centuries...
Edit. Fuck the joke.
Just googled him. Nea need for shite about one of Scotland's dammed good players. Cancer is possibly the worst way to go. | |
