    Not seen this anywhere. It's not a sick April Fool is it?

    Anyway, if not, RIP. Not often you get a one club man that stays at the top for the best part of 20 years.

    Don’t think so mate. It might have been Jock Wallace who signed him. From St Johnstone as a teenager.

    Greig signed him from Sunderland, what a good bit of business that was.

    Fao @arabian_ian I'd probably edit your original post if I was you, mate. When you search for John Greig on Google, one of the first results that comes up (at least for me) is this thread and the first line of your post.

    Obviously you were misinformed by one page, but we wouldn't want to spread that any further I'm sure.

    Instead this thread would merely become a tribute to one of the greats of Scottish football :D

    Wow. Thanks for that Archey.
    Hope the edit helps.
    I just dumped that crap site I used. Seems to be infected by so many cretins. The next day there was a reply by another brain dead individual posting that James Forrest (Celtic) had died.
