London - Former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson was one of several prominent figures from British football to pay tribute to Dave Mackay at the former Tottenham Hotspur captain's funeral on Tuesday.
Edinburgh-born midfielder Mackay died in hospital earlier this month at the age of 80 and was laid to rest at a funeral in the Scottish capital, with hundreds of fans lining the streets to watch his cortege go by.
"Everyone talks about his courage and bravery, but he was a fantastic footballer (as well)," Ferguson told mourners.
