He was just a bit before my time unfortunately.
My old fella said he was simply the best. Can't wait to see it.
The link I posted mate has the original trailer initially followed by the new documentary, it is well worth watching,I found it by chance today, it's my birthday so was around at my Dads,he worshipped Alex,so I stuck it on for the both of us, think I must have had had something in my eye whilst watching it!!:)
 

This is a coincidence. I have just posted a thread called Football Films and have now just noticed this. The DVD you are mentioning is highlighted via that thread!!!
 
Think this tribute has finally been released today, well worth a watch:)

Thanks for posting that, thoroughly enjoyed it.
I was fortunate enough to see Alex Young play but unfortunately too young to recall any specific moments.
What I do recall is a shock of golden hair and the electric air of anticipation whenever he had possession of the ball.
Great times.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Dario and I hope there are plenty more to come.:cheers:
Have to say that of all the user names on GOT yours is a classic. Great poster too BTW ;)
 

Great stuff, of course, and it's been in the making so long I feel like I've already seen most of it in bits and pieces but, here's the underlying rub for me...it's been way too long that we've had a player who'll be waxed lyrical about like this and for so long, after their career. That's sad...

Almost had one but the silverware was sold to keep the lights on.

Ugh...disgusting, really.

RIP Alex
 
My dad always said he’d never seen a player in a blue shirt glide past a defender as easily as Alex. It always baffled him why Alex got so few caps for Scotland.
