Eddie McCreadie was bought for a bargain £5,000 from East Stirlingshire and went on to play an important role in the 1962-63 promotion-winning season.
A key member of the 1970 FA Cup winning team, his aggressive and flamboyant style was a great asset.
After retiring through injury, he was appointed coach and then manager, leading the team back into League Division One.
He left to join the Memphis Rogues after a contract dispute.
