Dr Koop Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I hope his time and his legacy will be marked in the proper manner this weekend. I'd like to suggest 60 seconds of obscenity in the 77th minute of every game in Scotland. What a character. Memories to keep you warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

German Jag Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Knew he'd been ill for some time, but always a shock when it actually happens. Only ever met him the once, in the team's hotel in Austria at the 1995 Intertoto game against ASK Linz. RIP and condolences to the family. Will be a night reminiscing with the help of Youtube.

Romeo Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 John Lambie was mad as a brush and I mean no disrespect by that. As others have said there are no managers like him any more, all bland and say exactly the same thing. A real shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killie Zenit Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Great thread, thanks for some cracking stories. For some reason he and Thistle just seemed made for each other. A sad loss for them, and for Scottish football in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K77 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I started going to Thistle games in the late 80's. The promotion season of 91-92 was just a fantastic experience as a 16 year old in the shed, next to fence so we could hurl abuse and 2pence coins at the opposition fans. Great times. Then after Save the Jags when the Messiah returned the same feeling was evoked. Here was someone who really cared about the club, I think that was evident throughout the team as well. It mattered. A true Thistle legend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thistle_do_nicely Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 vividly remember going to his testimonial against Rangers - drew a very good crowd despite us being in the 3rd tier at the time, iirc. Genuinely gutted that he's gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Rider Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 What a man. What a manager. My all time favourite Thistle legend. I'm totally gutted he's gone. My thoughts are with his family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bishop Briggs Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Dreadful news! Lambie probably saved the club. If we'd gone down to the fourth tier, it would have been very tough to survive. But John turned it round - two successive promotions to the SPL, kept us up and got us to the semi against the EBT Govanites. What an amazing manager! Massive thanks for everything, John, RIP.

Highlandmagyar 2nd String Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 A true legend. Spoke simply and colourfully.

Now why, when everyone else is paying respects to John's footballing success and the great footballing stories you bring in a political angle and then lower yourself even further with awful abuse to a fellow poster? You are a disgrace to Thistle fans tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned Nederlander Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I remember a very lengthy radio interview he did many many years ago that I heard almost by chance due to an unscheduled car journey - it was brilliant, he came across very well and he spoke with great passion, intelligence and, of course, humour. He didn't have the best of times as Falkirk manager, these things happen, but that doesn't change the fact that he lived and breathed football and had more passion in his little finger for the game that most of today's over-paid, Beats wearing uber-arseholes ever will. A sad day, RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
