    Jock Stein is one of the most decorated managers in football history. His 1967 European Cup triumph with Celtic made him the first manager from Northern Europe to win the trophy. He holds the record for the most consecutive Scottish league titles (nine) and won 24 major trophies in 13 years at Celtic. Stein was awarded a CBE in 1970 for his services to football, and a bronze statue of him stands outside Celtic Park.
