Yep, I think only 4 British players have won more honours than him - including 9 championships in a row and the European Cup. Puts him in the legendary status for me

Obviously didn't have a happy time at Villa. However it says a lot about the respect he was held in when there are 430+ posts on a Rangers forum (Follow Follow which is normally full of anti-Celtic vitriol) and pretty much all are extremely respectful and many saying there should be a minute's silence before their game.

What came across to me was the amount of them that respectfully referred to him as Sir when offering their condolences. Fair play to those Rangers fans, and that's something I didn't think I'd ever write, just goes to show.
He was a Protestant
