JOCK STEIN is regarded by many Celtic fans as the club’s greatest-ever manager, winning the European Cup in 1967 and guiding the Parkhead men to nine successive League Championships between 1966 and 1974…

JUNIOR (Airdrie) – Celtic won their first trophy under Jock Stein when they won the Scottish Cup in 1965. How many of the Lisbon Lions team played in this game? I’m particularly interested in whether Ronnie Simpson was in goal.

The Celtic line-up for 3-2 win over Dunfermline Athletic was Fallon, Young, Gemmell, Murdoch, McNeill, Clark, Chalmers, Gallacher, Hughes, Lennox and Auld.

Seven of these players went on to play in the famous European Cup Final win over Inter Milan in 1967.

Fallon, Young, Gallacher and Hughes didn’t play in the European final. They were replaced by Simpson, Craig, Johnstone and Wallace.

BIG KEN (Via e-mail) – Could you tell me when super Ally McCoist made his Scotland debut?

Ally’s first cap was for a friendly international against the Netherlands on April 29, 1986.

The match was played in Eindhoven and ended in a goal-less draw.

KENNY LECKIE (Queen’s Park) – Is it true that Nicky Butt could have played for Scotland?

Indeed, Butt qualified to play through his Scottish father.

Scotland in fact selected Butt to come into the set-up as a teenager at a time when the Manchester United midfielder was being overlooked for the English under 21s, though the offer was declined.

Fergie later recalled an attempt to force Butt to switch allegiance to Scotland by threatening to fine him, though the player stuck to his guns and went on to win 39 caps for England.

FRANKIE F A (Glasgow) – In Scotland is there an example of a professional outfield player who went on to become a professional goalkeeper?

An example of this is George Jenkins, born in England and raised in Canada, George was a successful centre-forward in the Canadian and American Soccer leagues.

He sustained a serious knee injury resulting in a long absence from the game and on recovery moved between the posts and was a goalkeeper for the remainder of his career.

In 1933 Bill Struth brought him to Scotland to sign for Rangers, where he remained until moving to Kilmarnock in 1945.

His first team appearances in his long spell at Ibrox were curtailed by being deputy to Rangers Legend Jerry Dawson.
