Former Celtic youth player Jim Beattie passed away today after battling with MND over the last few years. Don't expect many folk to recognise the name, but he was part of the Scotland under 16 squad that were mugged by Saudi Arabia in the under 16 World Cup final at Hampden in 1989. After leaving Celtic he had spells with St. Mirren and Albion Rovers before joining Petershill. He was with us for 10 years and was terrific for us, despite losing almost 2 years after being diagnosed with Non Hodgkin Lymphoma. As well as being a great player he was also one of the nicest guys you could ever hope to meet. RIP Jim.
