    Link works ok. Sent this comment:

    Has to be Jock Stein. First British manager to win European cup, and he did it with a team of Scottish players all born within 30 miles of Celtic Park. Nuff said.

    Shankly, Chapman or Stein, probably. Close between those three, IMO.

    I've never thought of Chapman as one of the GREAT managers.

    Agree with you Greendave on Stein's achievements. Although that to me makes him the best Scottish manager not British.

    Amazing to think that no one here has even mentioned Bob Paisley as a possibility. Outwith Big Jock I would have to go with him, though all the others mentioned are worthy contenders
