CELTIC were, of course, the first British team to win the European Cup when they beat Inter Milan 2-1 in 1967, but unfortunately they were unsuccessful after again getting to the final in 1970 when they were beaten by Feyenoord…

CHICK (Mosspark) – I was on holiday in Cyprus last week and met a few Feyenoord fans in the local hostelry. We got chatting about the 1970 European Cup Final between Celtic and Feyenoord but we couldn’t agree on who scored for the Dutch. Can you help?

In the semi-final Celtic beat Leeds United 3-1 on aggregate, after a memorable 2-1 victory at Hampden Park in front of over 136,000 fans.

The final was played at the San Siro Stadium on May 6. Feyenoord won the match 2-1 after extra-time.

Tommy Gemmell opened the scoring on the half-hour mark for Celtic but two minutes later Israel equalised for the Dutch. The game went into extra-time.

The Swede Ove Kindvall broke the Scottish hearts to score the winner after a rare defensive lapse.

Like the 1967 European Cup Final-winning team all the Celtic players and manager were Scottish, and Tommy Gemmell had scored in two European Finals.

RONALD MASON (Erskine) – I might seem a lot to answer but being a regular follower of your Now You Know column, could you answer the following?

I know Bill Brown signed for Spurs in 1959 to pay for the Dundee floodlights.

Did Brown and Alan Gilzean play in the same Dundee and Spurs teams?

When did Gilzean sign for Spurs and when did they leave Spurs?

Finally, of the 1962 Dundee Championship-winning side, are Pat Liney, Ian Ure, Alan Cousin, Alan Gilzean and Hugh Robertson the only members left of that side?

As I say it might seem a lot to answer but I would be much obliged if you can help.

Bill Brown left Dundee for Spurs in the Summer of 1959. Alan Gilzean joined Dundee, as an amateur originally, in 1956.

Although he didn’t make his competitive debut until shortly after Brown had left. Gilzean went to Tottenham in December 1964.

Bill Brown left Tottenham for Northampton Town in October 1966. So the two players certainly played together at Spurs.

Gilzean was at White Hart Lane until 1974, when he left for South Africa.

As far as we can tell, of the Championship-winning team, first-team regulars Pat Liney, Bobby Seith, Ian Ure, Bobby Wishart, Alan Cousin and Alan Gilzean do survive.

As do fringe players Craig Brown, Bobby Waddell, Alex Stuart and George McGeachie.
