Popular Post Blue Nosed Babe 20,591 Posted November 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 21, 2021 The perma tanned legend has dementia and now does not recognise his son. 66 and in hospital not even rembering taking his boy to see the Famous or his coaching days.

Even though he never coached us was a Rangers man and a great character in Scottish football which it is sorely lacking just now. scottyscott1963 and richles1872 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOAT 30,449 Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Was literally just coming on to post about this, didn’t know he had dementia and it’s really bad now by the sounds of his sons interview. Seen my gran waste away with it and she didn’t recognise anyone. Horrible. scottyscott1963 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bears r us 30,793 Posted November 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 21, 2021 That is hellish news about Jimmy, really sorry to read that. My older brother has it but thankfully still knows everyone so far, it is his motor skills that are really poor. We booked a trip on Friday to go up to Shetland next Feb to spend a couple of weeks with him and our sister in law. richles1872, The true baller, CoatbridgeBear and 9 others 12 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

heathen fish boy 8,579 Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Jimmy is a good guy,used to come into place i worked every week,told me a few stories that never came out,nothing bad but one that made me laugh was bout him punching a window out at hampden during a disciplinary hearing,they shat it,dropped the suspension and let him go,genuinely sad to hear how he is scottyscott1963 and Blue Nosed Babe 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyscott1963 18,293 Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 Really sad,and it sounds that the boy is coaching in Holland and it sounds like their is nobody else here to look after Jimmy.
