    I'm from Wexford from Ireland was over twice in Glasgow for a Celtic game remember getting the book. Celtic will be forever grateful to him for saving the club for saving the club his legacy is a positive one build the new stadium and stopped Rangers 10 league titles in a row. Celtic is a brilliant club way I was treated by the Glasgow celtic fans was unbelievable they are brilliant fans just like the Irish fans.

    Fergus done a great job saving the club, he had a truly revolutionary plan. He stood tall and followed the plan through to the end, modernising the stadium and stopping 10 in a row. Hail Hail🍀🍀
    Fergus picked up £30+ Million Nett pay check as he left Celtic Park as a Tax Exile. I don't grudge him the money he made, he was honest enough to declare his intention from day one.
    Tommy Burns had a much greater impact on Celtic, he was the lifeblood and the heart of Celtic Football Club and he doesn't have a statue in the Celtic Way. Fergus doesn't deserve one, he was paid handsomely for his financial input, but more appropriately however, he should have a stand named after him, because without him there would be no stadium.

    Parkhead looked like a depressing place to watch football in the early 1990's. For the fans who were brave enough to go!! Empty terraces and a toxic atmosphere, which was hardly surprising whilst the old hierarchy were still in charge. It changed when McCann took over though. Or at least it seemed to, from the outside looking in.
