Burnley great dies. Jimmy Adamson

No falling on the ground, rolling around in feigned agony, trying to get another dismissed the field, applauding the opposition off after a game, shaking hands with an opponents and meaning good will even after a bruising encounter. What had Jimmy to teach the overpaid prima donnas of today.



Manners, respect and not a little skill. Cheers Jimmy.
