Thomas "Tommy" Burns (born 16 December 1956 in Glasgow; died 15 May 2008) was a Scottish professional football player and manager. He is also a former Scotland international, winning eight caps whilst a Celtic player. Tommy made 352 league appearances and scored 52 goals for Celtic, my second team, before moving to Kilmarnock. He later returned to manage Celtic before leaving for the Scotland number two job. He arrived back at Celtic for a third stint as first team coach and headed their youth development. It was announced this morning that he died in his home, he was suffering from skin cancer for the second time. The man was a legend and I am paying the respect he is due so this is for you Tommy and thanks for everything.
