Just how good was he? I didn’t get my first ST until the season after he left so I never got to see him play. Just started reading his book and it was quite the story. Working in a sawmill in £20 a week to signing for Rangers. Just got up to the part where Alex Totten wound him up about his pre-match meal. For those that haven’t read it, the players got a very basic meal in those days (scrambled eggs on toast) but AT had him thinking they got steak. Went into every minute detail, how did he want it cooked, even how fat/skinny his chips were to be, before announcing to Big Jock that ‘the new guy wanted steak’
Gutted I didn’t go to his testimonial to this day.
