Icons of Football
Known affectionately as ‘Luggy’, Paul Sturrock spent his entire club career at Dundee United, and under one manager – the legendary Jim McLean. Famous for his free-flowing skills and for wearing his socks round his ankles, Sturrock was in many ways the opposite of his stern manager and mentor. Paul reflects on his relationship with Jim, a man he thinks was a tactical genius, but who was also renowned for his lack of smiles and praise for his players. He reveals how it shaped him as a player, and later as a manager. Sturrock speaks on what it felt like to win the league with Dundee United, and the highs and lows he and his team-mates experienced playing against some of the biggest names in Europe, including shocking Spanish giants Barcelona. After Paul finished playing, he moved into coaching and management, becoming known as a manager who excelled at winning league promotions for his clubs. And then came the news that changed his life forever - Paul was diagnosed with Parkinson’s.
