Up my own arse
Of the players you loved, maybe not always the best, just your personal favourites.


Packy Bonner: An absolute Gentleman and a really good keeper, prone to the odd gaffe but hey ho.

Danny McGrain: My favourite player of all time. For those who did not see him at his peak, suffice to say he was World Class when that actually meant something. A phenomeon.

Johann Mjallby: Wore his heart on his sleeve and never shirked from a physical confrontation. Looked a giant in the Hoops.

Billy McNeill: Vastly underrated and another absolute Gent.

Anton Rogan: A joke figure at times (Well most of the time) but he was a character and always gave it everything.

Bertie Auld: In a word, Gallus.

Paul McStay: A travesty that he never achieved the trophy success his talents deserved, sublime.

Bobby Murdoch: What a player and as hard as nails. An enforcer on the park.

Jinky: Even when his career was on the wane, and he was a sub most weeks, the crowd still loved him.

Henrik: Don't need to explain.

Bobby Lennox: Another vastly underrated player, and another hero of my youth.
 
Gould - The bold Jonny Gould

McNamara - f**kin hated the queen

Vega - Handsome big bastard and loved the club, wish Spurs? let us keep him

Balde - Bobo that is. Flew a vatican flag out his motor the day we won the league

Naylor - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5ffhE-svEk

Alan Thompson - Hunskelper

Wanyama - f**kin bulldozed through the opposition like godzilla through Japan

Lambert - Class act and European cup winner

Lubo - Outstanding lad. Used to leave the floodlights on at parkhead for the Germans

Sutton - See Thompson. Great signing for us and his chip in the whitewash was excellent

JVoH - Mad big **** with a mad big name. Used to get off the team bus before old firms draped in a tricolour
 
Was hard to leave out Naka who used to sing 'Come Out You Black n' Tans' in Japanese in the dressing room (I believe he still does) and Momo Sylla who used to show up at ibrox with a balaclava and armalites n that

Packie- turned into a great keeper

Danny migrane- best RB ive seen

Shirley Temple- very underrated

Big Johan- of the viking variety

Up the RA McKinley- don't think we've had a full back who crossed as well as him

Di Canio- don't agree with his politics but what a player

McStay- was world class at 17

Stan- one of the best box to box players- amazing energy

Lubo- worth the admission fee on his own

Macca- just for the laughs

Henke- they don't call him King for nothing(man crush)
 
Not a Celtic fan(per se) but my memories of great players would be:
Packie
Aitken
Dalglish
Nicholas
Burns
Thompson
Di Canio
Viduka
Larsson
 
Danny Milosovic
Mo Camara
Paul Telfer
Du Wei
Danny Fox

Oliver Kapo
Freddie Ljunberg
Efran Juarez

Daryl Murphy
Chris Killen
Brozek - I cant mind his first name

Star Sub - the boy Hutchinson - I also cant mind his name
 
Boruc - loved winding up the huns. Probably gay as well.

Tom Boyd - Mister Reliable
Roy Aitken - led from the back
Mjallby - no nonsense CB
Agathe - nearly as fast as Bealy chasing a free meal

Alan Thomson - an alky but a good ****
Lambert - won a Champions League medal playing for a bunch of huns but he did the job in a 'tic shirt
Lennon - great at breaking up opposition player. Fuck knows what he's doing these days.
John Collins - great player. If his talent was as big as his ego would be spoken about in the same breath as Pele and Maradona

Charlie Nicholas - scored goals, wore an earring, shagged loads of burds
Larsson - goes without saying

****ing Tom Boyd.

****ing ****.
 
To be fair, I'm including only those whom I've seen playing live.

Artur Boruc - the first truly great keeper I've seen at CP and excellent for a laugh

RB Danny McGrain - it's all been said already but a pleasure to watch.
LB Dariusz Wdowczyk - intelligent and skillful. A much underrated plater IMO.
CB Roy Aitken - feed the berr! Heart of a lion and summed up the Celtic fighting spirit.
CB Alan Stubbs - a different typ of player. Skillful, built from the back and would compliment big Roy well.

MD Paul McStay - utter class and could run a game
MD Paul Lambert - great holding player who came back from Dortmund a far better player
MD Lubomir Moravcik - one of the best I have ever seen

FW Kenny Dalglish - a true great, maybe even genius
FW Charlie Nicholas - nobody who saw him in his first spell at Celtic will forget the 'cannonball kid'
FW Henrik Larsson - truly world class
 
Interesting that save for one mention of Forster not one present day player anywhere near that list

And can't believe no mention of Kenny Miller?
