The power of Tommy Burns endures and is felt in so many places. Now 53, Tosh McKinlay is only two years older than Burns was when he passed away just over ten years ago. McKinlay was unable to attend the premiere of Tommy Burns, the latest Scottish football documentary from purpleTV, earlier this week. He recalls playing against Burns for Dundee in a 6-2 defeat at Dens Park, 35 years ago this month. “When I went to the house that night with the Nakamura portrait, it was the same Tommy Burns,” recalls McKinlay.
