History Bhoys Abroad

Sports


One from the back catalogue. Episode 21 sees us dive into the mid 50s for a player who's bloodline runs deep within the history of Celtic. A very famous great uncle and a famous father, but John Divers Jr's career is worth recognising and remembering. A player from the Jimmy McGrory era, working with Jock Stein in the reserves before one final season at Celtic with Jock at the helm of the first team. He left us right before the Golden Era. He scored 102 goals in 232 games. An interesting man by all accounts who played one small but significant role in the domination that followed his own time. We also reviewed the Albion Rovers tie and watch the cup draw. Join us:  Twitter: @bhoysabroad Facebook: facebook.com/HistoryBhoysAbroad Gmail: @historybhoys
