Photo Of The Day: The Two Jimmy’s

By 1 Comment

Today’s photo of the day is of the two Jimmy’s – Jim ‘Sniper’ McColl and Jimmy ‘Napoleon’ McMenemy – both Celtic legends.

In their playing days, Sniper scored 126 goals in 169 games for Celtic between 1913-20. Napoleon scored 168 goals in 515 games for the club between 1902-20. However, the chosen image shows the duo spending time together after their careers had ended.

These legends should never be forgotten.

Hailing from an Irish background, I grew up on the English south coast with the good fortune to begin watching Celtic during the Martin O'Neill era. I have written four Celtic books since the age of 19: Our Stories & Our Songs: The Celtic Support, Take Me To Your Paradise: A History Of Celtic-Related Incidents & Events, Walfrid & The Bould Bhoys: Celtic's Founding Fathers, First Season & Early Stars, and The Holy Grounds of Glasgow Celtic: A Guide To Celtic Landmarks & Sites Of Interest. These were previously sold in Waterstones and official Celtic FC stores, and are now available on Amazon.

    Any idea when and where the photo was taken, Liam? Possibly early 1960s? Napoleon died in 1965, and Sniper in 1978.
