He was as hard as nails.
Eddie Turnbull brought him to Aberdeen in 1970.
Went on to play for both Arsenal and Tottenham.
Imposing centre half at 6" 3".
RIP Willie.

He was a big hard bastard. The sort of player loved by his own fans and hated by the opposition. I remember his tackle on Paul Allen during the 1980 FA Cup resulted in the introduction of the professional foul. He got banned for life from the Scottish international team without ever winning a cap....A Ross High boy. RIP

After Spurs and Arsenal he played 50-60 times for Forest. He was quite an intmidating presence at the back. He went on to stay in area after retiring from football and kept the Bramcote Manor pub in Nottingham. Understand he had a kennel business after that. RIP Willie.
