Legendary former Partick Thistle manager. Noted for many things in Scottish football, but probably best known for the fact that during a match Lambie was told told that striker Colin McGlashan was concussed and didn’t know who he was.

The boss replied: “Great. Tell him he’s Pelé and get him back on.”

I remember being 100 feet away from the dugout and could hear him shouting at his players to "dinnae pussy wi the ba, pert wi it fester!" PROPER old school.

Replayed an interview with Lambie and Charnley on BBC Radio Scotland last night.  Some great stories.
