Jimmy Bone - legend

We have been contacted by Jimmy Bone's son, who asked us to announce that although Jimmy is seriously ill, he has not passed away, contrary to reports across the media. Our thoughts and prayers remain with Jimmy's family at this difficult time.

What an embarrassment tonight from Daily Record Sport, how can such a mistake be made? A public apology to the Bone family would be in order...

Keep fighting, Jimmy. ❤️❤️❤️
