    I am a Celtic man, but I can appreciate great talent. The man had a great left peg. There are many ‘ordinary’ players earning vast amounts of money who couldn’t lace his boots. Many of today’s players, particularly down south, have all the rewards but none of the success. Some of the guys going for £30m+ have never had a medal round their neck.

    I was a wee boy and he was doing a book signing and me and my pals crowded into WH Smith in Killie. The staff shouting at us all because it was only his books he was signing. He told the staff to shut there mouths and told all of us to behave ourselves and he let us line up with the adults so we could get our shirts and pieces of jotter paper signed.

    After that night he would always say hello to me whenever our paths crossed in Hamilton.

    I grew up watching Davie Cooper playing for Rangers in the 80's.
    As a kid i admired Davie's skill at dribbling, passing and crossing.
    He was a great player on his day, as good as anyone when running at defenders, and could change a game instantly with a bit of magic from his left foot.
    R.I.P Davie Cooper.
    Always remembered, never forgotten.

    The free kick in the league cup final v Aberdeen.
    I've just finished watching it a few times..And yep the power of the shot is stunning not forgetting how spectacular,what I noticed in re watching it a few times was how he suddenly ran up
    and hammered the ball..He had saw the path to the top
    Right hand corner and he sprung into life..Totally meant.
    wasnt a sheer power shot.Accuracy..Man!.Absolute deadly intent.
    Glorious player
    Among the greats of Scottish and world football for me.

    Special memory with 2 men I idolised my Father Dougie Douglas & Davie Cooper both RIP ,Skol Cup Final when fans were squashed in like sardines in Old Hampden Park .Lifted over turnstile,vision of green & white & Red White Blue scarfs ,flags held aloft a vision seen you’ll never forget Davie Cooper scores important penalty & gave me proper special father & son cherished memory . Even Cooper with love & hate relationship with Celtic fans was one of rare players respected by Old Firm enemy Fans Penalty Scotland got v Wales even diehard Celtic fans I personally saw screaming Cooper it’s got to be Davie Cooper & Scotland erupted bigotry put aside for special player .I’m glad Motherwell got to see BOTH Cooper & Russel show off their ability & exite Well fans helped Motherwell fans win Scottish Cup Talk about Cooper as Motherwell best signing but I’d say Tommy McLean pulled off double masterstroke each off equal greatness signings Davie & Bobby . Looking back you now realise just how good they both were & very humble men . THANKYOU FOR & CREATING FATHER & SON MEMORIES .
