There was a documentary about Tommy Burns on BBC Alba last night-I think you can get it on the iPlayer. A good watch. Just reinforced the view that more than anything, he was a great man.
It’s mainly interviews with his family, but it gives a different view on him, and gets a bit emotional in points.

No worries piff. These things sometimes don’t get advertised and not everyone knows about them.

As a bit of an add on, the Killie fans want to mark his passing in the 51st minute and have the Celtic fans join in. That’s a nice touch.
There’s also an interview with Ray Montgomerie about his time with Tommy at Kilmarnock. Again, I think it’s a decent insight into the man.

Vividly remember getting home from Manchester at 5am on the Thursday morning and hearing the news he had passed
One of life's good guys for sure
Should've got the Scotland job in 2007
