    I'm stealing this factoid and posting it somewhere that lots of papes will be in uproar. Suppose Follow Follow should be my first port of call.

    Billy was a Celtic and Scotland legend. A European cup winning captain. Probably the greatest Celtic player of them all.

    Sad day for football.

    Wonder how many games CFC will asked to be postponed in his honour.

    A wee aside to lighten the mood somewhat.

    Can you name any other Scots who have captained teams to European glory?

    No cheating now Iain.

    Dalgliesh never captained Liverpool in European finals. Souness and Greig are correct. There was and Aberdeen fella anaw but we need a name Micheal ffs.

    If you mean Frank Mclintock then your semi correct. He captained Arsenal to the Fairs cup.

    Right but still wrong.

    It was a Scot who was captain for their two wins but it wasn't Roberston.

    Thought about Dave Mackay but I think Danny Blanchflower was The Spur's captain.
