Just as it looks Gil...zean. One from my youth and more remember him for being in the Harry Hood song, Spurs and Scotland. Jimmy Greaves said he was the best he ever played alongside. Rest in peace. |

I always admired Alan Gilzean, both as a tremendous player and as an apparently modest and pleasant gentleman. May his soul rest in peace. |

I remember going to a match at Celtic Park poss in 63 after they had won the league. Gilzean, Bert Slater, Alex Hamilton, Ian Ure, a very accomplished Dundee side. Massive crowd, we beat them 3-0, but it was one of those flash in the pan Celtic performances. |

Alan Cousin was one of the rectors at my school in the 80s. Don't think in all the time I was there anyone knew that he too had a decent career in the game, I certainly didn't. He died a couple of years back. Shame, he was a very decent sort. Thanks for the video.

I remember being very happy to get his card, with interesting facts on the back, possibly free with a pack of chewing gum. This would have been about 1970 |

22 caps for Scotland over 9 years. Obviously there was a lot of competition in those days - e.g. Denis Law - but seems paltry. Apparently Gilzean wasn't fond of football. Always fascinated when a pro is like that, Assou-Ekoto being the famous recent example. Edited by Bobby Petta, Today, 12:29 AM.
