John Thomson

[50 Shades of Green]

Celtic’s saddest day as John Thomson meets his death following an accidental collision with Sam English of Rangers at Ibrox. The accident occurs soon after the start of the second half. English is slightly injured and immediately hobbles over to see to Thomson whose head knock looks to be serious. Behind the goal a crowd of morons cheer and demand that the game should continue but they are stilled by an appeal from Rangers’ captain Davie Meiklejohn. John dies just before 9.30 p.m that evening in the Victoria Infirmary, and his funeral is held a few days later in his home village of Cardenden in Fife.


Rest in Peace our Prince of Goalkeepers, taken far to soon.

Rest in Peace John Thomson.
