Chick Young speaks to Old Firm managers Graeme Souness, Walter Smith and others.

Chick Young speaks to Old Firm managers Graeme Souness, Walter Smith, Billy McNeill and Liam Brady about their time in charge of Rangers and Celtic.

In the third of a series of documentaries about managing Glasgow's famous rival football clubs, Graeme Souness talks about revolutionising Rangers in the 1980s and the sensational signing of former Celtic striker Maurice Johnston.

When Souness left Ibrox, his former assistant Walter Smith carried on Rangers' success in the 1990s. Smith discusses the club's record-equalling run of nine successive league championship wins and the players who contributed to that success.

Billy McNeill chats about his second spell as Celtic manager, including the club's famous centenary year league triumph in 1988.

Liam Brady faced challenges off the park as well as on it during his stint as Celtic boss and gives an insight to the boardroom drama at the club in the early 1990s.
