Incredible player one of the most versatile going about they dont make em like they used to.
A True Blue through and through.
Decent fellah as well, met him at a football thing at Hampden back in the 90s I think it was and he spent a fair bit time chatting away with us, no annoyance or ignorance even when he knew my mates amd I were Celtic fans just spoke about his time in the game a had a few funnies about his derby matches, top bloke and a great player

Thank you for the comment.
Yes I remember we got talking about Walter Smith too, how he and Goram both died of cancer. Sadly that was Sandy Jardine's fate too, he was diagnosed with liver cancer in late 2012. Really sad.
I experienced a game in the Directors box at Ibrox for the first, and likely the only time in my life.....all thanks to this man.
He was a true gentleman, he absolutely loved the club, and he was taken far too soon
I was at the Hearts game when they renamed the Govan stand after him too and got rather emotional
Great guy

Same here he arranged blue room and directors box tickets
Never to be forgotten day
Along with the interplay with McKean that set up the title winning goal at Easter road
2 of my greatest football memories and Sandy at the heart of both
The son of someone who used to work with me was in hospital with cancer at the same time as Sandy was. My workmate said Sandy was very kind and friendly towards the young man.
Thank you everybody for sharing your stories and tributes to Sandy Jardine.
