What happened to that cult hero of the 80s jim tolmie?I remember us buying him from lokeren in 1983
 
Jim Tolmie (born 21 November 1960 in Glasgow) is a retired Scottish footballer who played for clubs including Morton, Lokeren and Manchester City.

He started his career at Morton and made his senior debut on 28 October 1978. Then he was sold to Belgian side Lokeren in 1981, playing 18 games without scoring before returning to Britain in 1983.

Tolmie was signed by Billy McNeill for City from Lokeren for £30,000. Jim was the third signing in nine days made by McNeill, who had himself just joined City from Celtic. He left Manchester City and spent a summer playing in Sweden with Markaryd IF, before returning to Morton in 1991. He retired in 1994.

Thats about it mate.
