that hat Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Reading his profile on the official site brings home the length of service he has given to MFC and as he approaches the state retirement age was wondering if he deserves recognition for the number of crocked players he's managed to rehabilitate and put back on the pitch? With klimpl and McLean being the latest to return after major injury and surgery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 'Flow Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Approaching twenty years at Motherwell and without doubt, the best and most respected physio in the SPL. I'd hope when J finally calls it a day the club would do something for him because he deserves it.... The list of players who he has rehabed back to health in record time speaks for itself!

another number Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 He is indeed the man! I was just wondering the other day how long he had been at the club. A true servant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 'Flow Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Indeed, El' Alex provides a great help on matchdays; like a good few others!

SuperSteelman Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 What JP did to get Brian McLean back to full fitness so quick was quite unbelievable. Not to mention all the others he has helped throughout the years. Well done JP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodge Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Is that Jimmy Simpson you are talking about? Is he still going? Jimmy Simpson has been away from Fir Park for a while. I've been at Fir Park 9 and a bit years and came in a couple of year after Jimmy though he can still be seen at Fir Park before some games.

madwullie Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 Cheers mate, used to work the gates about 10 years ago and was sure Jimmy was on his way out - he was in pretty poor health IIRC. Glad to hear he's still going to the games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
