alexscottislegend 2,554 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 My main recollection of Denis is his jack-knife headers and scissor kicks, and then his gladiatorial one-arm salute. Despite his flamboyance on the pitch off it he was really modest and sincere. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gribz 1,110 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Always quite liked Calderwood, thought he was a bit underrated as a manager. Did well at his clubs in the SPL. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluedell 5,840 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Jimmy Calderwood bought a season ticket at Ibrox for the seat next to mine in 2017. He came along for one game but unfortunately it was announced that he had Alzheimer's the following week and he never came back. A horrible disease and a shame that he had it. My thoughts are with his family and friends. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 1,110 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I suppose its quite apt that Aberdeen will play Dunfermline in the cup for a Calderwood tribute. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
