also represented the Scottish League XI 14 times, scoring twice. At the age of 40 he also took part in a 1921 summer tour of North America as a member of 'Third Lanark Scotland XI' (organised by Third Lanark and composed of players from seven different clubs); he was reunited with old teammate and rival Alec Bennett who thereafter became the Thirds manager. Coaching and later life After retiring from playing, McMenemy spent some years away from football and spent time as a publican. He came back to Partick Thistle as a coach, then in 1934 returned to Celtic as trainer assisting Willie Maley (the same manager who had brought him to the club three decades earlier), helping players such as Jimmy Delaney and Willie Buchan to develop and taking charge of the squad which won the Empire Exhibition Trophy in 1938, having already secured that year's League title. Maley retired in 1940, however McMenemy was not chosen to succeed him, the role instead going to Jimmy McStay. By then the world was again at war, and McMenemy and Celtic parted company. He died in Glasgow in 1965. Legacy In 2010, a selection of McMenemy's medals, Scotland caps and other memorabilia was sold at auction for £3,500. In 2013, the Evening Times newspaper ranked him in 12th position among Celtic's greatest-ever players. In 2014, the 'Celtic Graves Society' held a commemorative event for McMenemy in Dalbeth St Peters Cemetery to recognise his achievements, attended by family members and former players. Personal life Jimmy McMenemy's five sons were also footballers: John won the Scottish Cup with Celtic in 1927 – just six years after his father's last win – and the Scottish League Championship with Motherwell in 1932; Harry played for Newcastle United where he won the FA Cup in 1932; Frank played for Hamilton Academical and Crystal Palace; and both James (Maryhill) and Joe (Strathclyde) were prominent junior players but did not play at the professional level. Joe McMenemy is also credited with saving the sister of Sean Fallon from drowning during a holiday in Sligo, after which the families became acquainted; Fallon would go on to serve Celtic as a player and coach for many years. Lawrie McMenemy, the former manager of Southampton and many other teams, is a distant relation of the family.
