Had Haway Jimmy, man

I never met the man and nor should I have I suppose but one man who made life happy for a few years has just died.

I never saw him as a player either and that was my loss.

Jimmy Adamson was the manager at Burnley for several years and during that time I watched the best football I have ever seen, week in and week out.

I was a regular supporter at Roker Park from 1979 - 1988 too but they never shone like Adamson's Burnley side much as I was happy to go there every home game for all those years.

Well done Jimmy, many thousands of people will remember you with a great deal of fondness.
