“I don’t think I ever played a better game. Anyone could play with McMenemy. He’s one of the few to whome the term genius has been applied without hysterics.” – Adam Scott Duncan – Scottish Internationalist and later Manchester United manager.

James “Jimmy” McMenemy is remembered as one of the greatest Celtic players of all time. His faithful service to the club over eighteen years was rewarded with an incredible eleven League Championship badges and six Scottish Cup medals. As the General of the Celtic attack for almost two decades and a master tactician who could dictate games through his passing, he was rightly known as ‘Napoleon’ throughout his career. Originally from Rutherglen, he famously signed for Celtic ‘up a close in Union Street’ before going on to become a famous son of Celtic.

In the crucial inside-forward role his speed, passing and shooting ability were key figures in the 6-in-a-row side (1905-1910), the 4-in-a-row side (1914-17) and, seventeen years after his debut, the League Title winning side of 1919. Jimmy scored 168 goals in 515 appearances for Celtic. He played alongside some of the biggest Celtic names including Jimmy Quinn, Patsy Gallacher, Tommy McInally, Alec McNair and Andy McAtee. Nearing his 40th birthday Celtic gave him a free transfer – he joined Partick Thistle and he led them to Scottish Cup glory against Rangers the following season.

‘Nap’ returned to Celtic Park as trainer under his old mentor Willie Maley from 1935-1940 and he is credited with helping shape Celtic’s great team of 1936-1938 – including the famous front line of Delaney, Crum, Murphy, Buchan and MacDonald – which went on to win the Empire Exhibition Trophy against the best teams that England had to offer. Four of Jimmy’s sons became professional footballers including John who won a Scottish Cup winners medal with Celtic in 1927 against East Fife.

All Celtic Supporters are welcome to attend and flowers/tributes can be laid at the graveside.

Today we caught up with Richard Parker, Vice President of the Ottawa CSC, to discuss the recent tragic events in his city and what the response has been. We also talk about the relationship that the North American CSC's have with the PLC, what more can be done and what hopes and aspirations we have for growing the club here. We also talk diddy Govan clubs, the upcoming Philly Feile and Paul Larkin's Asterisk Years Documentary Premiere. Finally we evaluate Ronny Deila so far and look forward to hopefully keeping the new shining star that is John Guidetti. We hope you enjoy! Hail Hail and Keep the Faith.....

First off the mark is the Foggy Draw with Astra and the thoughts on whether we missed our best opportunity to qualify from the Europa League group stages. John Guidetti is next on the list and discussions on whether we think he will remain at Celtic. Martin asks the questions about former Celtic managers and if they are welcome back at Celtic Park. We finish things up with predictions for the Aberdeen game and our thoughts on drawing Sevco in the Skol Cup.
