The famous Celtic team that became the first British side to win the European Cup were last night inducted into the Scottish Football Hall of Fame.
On the year they celebrate their 50th anniversary of their triumph, the team known as the Lisbon Lions were among the Scottish footballing greats honoured at the annual Hall of Fame Dinner, with members of the team John Clark, Jim Craig and Willie Wallace all inducted individually as well.
Four members of the side that defeated Inter Milan 2-1 in the final in Lisbon attended the dinner, with Bertie Auld, Bobby Lennox, Jim Craig and John Clark representing the team.
The Queen's Park side of 1883/84 was also one of the inductees last night, in the year the club – the oldest football club in Scotland – celebrates its 150th anniversary.
Also receiving the Hall of Fame accolade were former Nottingham Forest captain John McGovern, who lifted the European Cup twice with the Midlands club, ex-Morton player and manager Allan McGraw, who scored 140 goals in 176 appearances for Morton and was named First Division Manager of the Year after winning the title, and legendary broadcaster, writer and commentator Archie Macpherson.
The Scottish Football Hall Of Fame is a permanent feature within the Scottish Football Museum/Hampden Experience.
It honours the truly great players, managers and officials who have reached the pinnacle of their profession and made a significant contribution to Scotland’s football reputation through their skill, spirit and determination.
