Our thoughts are with Jimmy's loved ones. RIP.

[St Mirren FC @saintmirrenfc]

St Mirren Football Club is deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Jimmy Bone at the age of 75.

After a career that saw him turn out at the likes of Partick Thistle, Norwich City, Sheffield United, Celtic and Arbroath, Jimmy joined Saints in 1978. Appointed club captain by Jim Clunie, Jimmy was part of the side that won the Anglo-Scottish Cup in 1980 and made 174 appearances before departing for Hong Kong in 1982.

Jimmy returned to the club in a coaching capacity in December 1986, joining up as Alex Smith’s assistant manager as the pair helped lead Saints to Scottish Cup glory in 1987.

He would return to the club again in 1992, this time as manager, where he would take charge of 182 games before leaving in 1996.

In 2017, Jimmy was inducted into the St Mirren Hall of Fame for his contributions to the club as player, coach and manager.

The thoughts of everyone at St Mirren are with Jimmy’s loved ones at this sad time.
