The news of the sudden death of former Motherwell captain Bert McCann will give cause for reflection to those fortunate enough to see our fine wing half in his almost 250 appearances in claret and amber. - External Link

Bert wasn't a massive physical presence, but he had ways of protecting himself, hence his nickname 'Digger'. He didn't score often, but did against Rangers in a 3 - 3 draw at Fir Park around 1960? We'd been doing badly in the league, and that result turned the season around. Thanks Bert; you won't be forgotten in Motherwell.

RIP Bert. A real gentleman and a talented player off the pitch.
