boy_in_maroon Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Sorry if already posted. News flash on Hearts facebook page regarding tomorrow. A very nice fitting i would say. Going to be a very sad day indeed Following the passing of Jim Cruickshank, the club has spent the day talking to key supporters' reps. There will be a minute of silence tomorrow and then Marian Kello will take a shirt with Jim's name and No. 1 and lay it in his goalmouth to be with him and us for the day. Rest easy, Jim. We won't forget you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamTarts1874 Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 A fitting tribute I think. Not had the pleasure of seeing him play but my dad always spoke fondly of him and he was one of my old boy's favourite players. Good that the club are honouring him in this way. RIP big felly.

JWL Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 One of the first autographs I ever got was Cruickie, (possibly even the first), a true hero and gentleman. I even tried to model myself on him as I grew up trying to be a decent goalkeeper, never to be though. I will genuinely have a tear in my eye tomorrow when this happens. I am sure that for all that has gone on in the past, if the great man is looking down on Tynecastle tomorrow he will just think 'Thanks Hearts'.

Me too, mickey. Canny stop thinking about Cruickie! Be very emotional tomorrow. I blubber like a bairn at the least wee thing these days...be a wreck tomorrow. Minute's silences are so very poignant. Just hope we can make a helluva noise afterwards, and cheer the Hearts to a resounding victory...and a clean sheet for Marian, with Jim's spirit in the goal with him.

Lynn Immediately after the minutes silence, as Kello takes the shirt to the goal, Aye,aye, aye, aye should be ringing out. I never saw him play but the reaction here is something else.

michaelp Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 I know I am one of many saying this,but Jim was a superb keeeper who should have had more accolades.I started watching Hearts regularly from 1975-76 season,only a couple of times before then,and while we were a poor side then,I have an abiding memory of Cruickie,and how dependable and athletic he was.He was a true Hearts legend,and I will certainly be paying my deepest respects at the game later today. RIP Jim Cruickshank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanghai Hearts Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Fitting tribute, Hearts legend. If CG claims he was the best then much props. A sad day but a day to celebrate a legend & pay respect to his family . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HillmanHearts Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 " Cruickshank For Scotland " : We used to chant back in days gone bye. Cruickey was a hero for me & my mates during the 70s when Hearts were generally not all that good. He was the one real class act we had at the time. One Saturday our bus stopped of at HartHill as usual on the way back from Glasgow after Cruickey had played another blinder and we bumped in to Willie Ormond the Scotland manager. We were just kids but me and the lads gave him it tight about getting Cruickey in the Scotland team. Willie was really cool and told us that he was at the game to check out his form and was really impressed. He was in the next squad and we were all really proud of him and Hearts. But to be honest Jimmy should have had loads of Scotland caps coz he was a tremendously talented keeper. RIP Jimmy - you are a Hearts Legend . You made a difference big man.

Beverley Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 i was chocked when i read that earlier. i've felt really emotional all day about this, despite never having seen him play i've heard the tales though and would have loved nothing more than to have been able to sit down and have a drink with the big man and listen to his stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
