Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Jim Casey (born August 2, 1957 in Glasgow) is a retired Scottish football midfielder. He spent eight seasons in Scotland and part of one season in the United States. Originally a schoolboy signing with Celtic, Casey signed a professional contract with the Bhoys in May 1974. He made his Celtic first team debut in the 1-0 League Cup win at home to Stenhousemuir on September 24, 1975. He saw little first team time until the 1977-78 season. That year, Casey was given his break at sweeper after an injury to Pat Stanton. He was impressive against Motherwell FC at Fir Park in a 4-2 win in the League Cup on September 3, 1977 but seven days later Celtic blew a two goal lead in the league at Ibrox to lose 3-2 and Casey again found himself out of favour. After Billy McNeill's arrival in 1978, Casey re-enterd the first team until disaster struck on December 13, 1978 against Rangers in the League Cup semi-final.
