Bertie Auld just been on Football Focus talking and singing about The Lisbon Lions. Same humour and passion as when I saw him play back in 1958 (I think). Irrespective of any sectarian nonsense I can remember being delighted that Celtic won that European Cup because Bert Auld was playing for them.
"Dirty Bertie" was my second hero but he didn't join us until 1961.
Hence my first hero was Jeff Hall as I had just started to play full-back for my junior school. Cried my eyes out when he died.
