Anyone remember Gordon Hill...

...the former Manchester United winger who managed and coached (and perhaps played for?) the Nova Scotia Clippers their one season in the old Canadian league?

My son was training under him in the Seattle area today. I have to admit I had no idea who he was, but I see he had quite a career, including some time spent in Montreal with Manic. At 65 he's still a very capable coach with some excellent insight regarding the modern game.

From what I remember he eventually had to leave the Clippers because he had neglected to get a work visa. He also played for Inter-Montreal in the short lived CPSL in 1983. Can definitely remember him starring for Tommy Docherty's very good late 70s Man Utd team. He was good enough to play for England at that point. Think he's also viewed as a legendary player by Millwall fans where he played before that.
