There will only be 1 Billy Bremner, what a player, what a captain, what a team 🏆🏆🏆
Bremner and Giles
@@malcolmmckinlay2143 Absolutely, what a combination
Billy sure died way too early, as a footballer, it was as if he had dynamite in his belly all the time. A great servant for Leeds utd. Maybe his ashes weren’t retained, but are now with the family . RIP Billy, a veritable legend and Tiger on the football field 🙏🙏. From a Liverpool fan
Watching this the day Franz Beckenbauer died. Rip Billy, Scotland had many good players back then😢
One of the best midfielders ever god bless KING BILLY
As a Doncaster Rovers fan, the team Billy put together in the 1980's was a great side and a joy to watch. Billy left us too soon and is resting in the same cemetery as my dad.
And my dad as well.
The great Leeds team of the 70s led by Billy, I used to love watching them play as you could guarantee a punch up or a player getting hacked down. RIP Billy
I'm a massive wolves fan, I'm 57 now, I grew up wiv these legends as a kid in the 70 s so sad to see pass away one by one 😥
Great memories of a wonderful footballer Rip Billy
King Billy the greatest
As a Scottish Leeds Utd fan I was privileged to see Billy play in both jersey's. He is my all time favourite player who's pride and love for his team wouldn't allow him to give less than 100% commitment. He's often been described as a midfield dynamo because he was the beating heart of the team. RIP wee man, thanks for some wonderful memories ❤❤
I supported leeds from a kid i remember the 1972 cup final beating arsenal 1-0 with an allan Clarke diving header then the following year crying my eyes out losing to Sunderland
I remember when Lees United won the FA Cup, he was a great player
A true legend.
So many of the great Leeds utd team up there keeping Billy Bremner company Sprake Charlton Hunter Lorimer Cherry Don Revie all very much missed ❤❤❤
@@lennartforsberg1519 these players are still alive
Billy was born in Stirling and was my mums cousin. Sadly mum and dad have passed but but I. Sure mum said his ashes were brought back to Stirling but not 100% sure There are no family members that I can ask as all gone Thank you for that Mum and did say he was a quiet man but had a firey temper to match his hair lol ❤
What a player ! MOT 💙🤍💛 🏴
Didn't realise he had died so young😢. He was Captain of that wonderful team that
got me supporting Leeds in the 70s, and I am a fan today. Fiery yes, but skilful and fiercely loyal.MOT

As a Leeds fan who.use to be a season ticket holder for many years but after working in Leeds for well over 20 years don't get to Elland Road much now but when I do I always arrange to meet at Billy Bremner. Still to this day I'm off an age were he's still a fans favourite I'm 54 he's not mine, in over 40 years it has to be Raphina .
Thank you, Alan. I'm not a football fan but do remember Billy Bremner playing. Your videos are great watching, informative and interesting even when you can't pin point a definite location. Keep up the good work.
Hello Joy what makes me very happy is that you 've bothered to watch a few of my films by the look of it. Thank you ever so much. That's very sweet of you. I'm glad that you find them informative. I do my best I usually know them to some degree but watch a documentary in most cases so I can get the feel. I'll watch out for you and thank you Alan
Well done Alan ! Least you got there and you care that’s awesome Pal. Keep up the good work! Love ya Al. ❤
I know Paul you can't win them all unless you're Billy 🤠
There is a good article in The Stirling Observer on his visit back to his old school St. Modan's,a lot of my pals in the photos,must have had a day off that day or i would have been with my pals.
Billy Bremner was my favourite football player when I was younger. I still have a football statue of him ❤ . Thank you for sharing his final resting place . ❤ RIP BILLY 🙏
Well done you have found another famous person keep them coming
My memory of Billy was of him playing keepie uppie on the goal line playing my Hibs at ER. Such was his way
Aah I didn’t realise we’d lost billy bremnar I remember collecting football cards when I was about 11 years old and billy bremmnar stuck out for some reason good to have you back Alan you did your best thankyou ❤️😊
You could at least spell the guys name correctly. It's in the title to copy if you can't spell.
Ah you did your best mate, still did him proud x🏴
I tried Carol. I wasn't a big football fan but I remember Billy
@@MotorHomeBeepBeepyes unforgettable! Typical redhead! Take care Alan ,great to have you back x

Hi Gillian wishing you a healthy New year! Alan
He was a Great Footballer...Lovely Tribute Alan
Hello Debbie, thank you for the coming. Have a lovely day. Alan
Great player and a fierce competitor he epitomised everything about that great Leeds utd side of the 70s RIP wee man . An Everton fan .
RIP Billy
Sad RIP ❤ although I’ve never heard of him till the next one 😊
Although too young to have seen him live, I've heard many stories about him and whether the bribery scandals are true or not, he will go down in history as The Scum's finest player/captain. RIP Billy 💛
Hi Alan I'm like you not really a football fan even though I used to collect football cards as a child and remember Billy Bremners football cards but he was an amazing footballer and went much to early anyway Alan you done your best to find his final resting place
Hi Karl even people like you and me who weren't mad Kane on football. Remember Billy, it was a very prominent and good footballer afternoon in the news so it was a pleasure to try and find his final resting place. Thank you my friend, Alan
Wow! never knew this, I’m a rovers fan from donny and have family members ashes buried at rose hill.
Honestly : you are the only guide/walker/commentator i never had a " digital word "with...
And the same for me. Tom baker, hello!
Well you can’t win them all Alan but you did try and still made a nice short video of a great player( they even made a song about him) keep up the good work mate can’t wait for the next one 👏👏👏👍
Hi Psy if you noticed that I didn't put the video up quite a long time, but I did think it's still helped to remember such a great footballer even though I kind of do a blank regarding the definite location but thank you as always my friend
Thanks for the video. Billy up in the big blue sky keeping the white flag flying high.
Great as always alan keegans fight with Jonny Giles great days 👏👏👍
Hi Moggy a great idea!
Wee Billy was in a long line of scottish player's/manager's who came to England and not only played and managed but really shook the place up...sadly now there are hardly and decent men from Scotland able to do that...now....
Times have changed, and the change is so much money has flowed into English football, so they have the best players and managers in the world to choose from. Scotland doesn’t get the TV money and billions invested, it’s just totally different. The BBC pay more for Gary linekear than they pay to Scottish football. Scott McTominay is a typical example, brilliant and class player for Scotland that isn’t guaranteed a game for his club
He's playing football ⚽️ up above but missed by all he loved
Did you notice you said world cup final with kevin Keegan when in fact it was the charity shield 1974 with liverpool , i enjoyed your tribute .
Thank you for the correction
Thank you Alan, shame there is no plaque for him
I agree totally John
Elland road has an amazing statue of Billy and is what can only be described as a shrine , He defininetely isnt laid to rest in Donny ,he is back home in Stirling Scotland RIP Billy the King
Hi Alan trust you are well Billy Bremner as one could say George Best and him were 2 off a kind and passion for football I am for C.T scan on friday on Abdomine , Bladder and Pelvic area
Hi Hance it goes without saying I wish you the absolute best but try not to worry because that will do nothing to help people always worry too much and it's such a shame. Tell me how it goes on and thank you for the comment on Billy
@@MotorHomeBeepBeep Hi Alan a real true friend thanks so much mate
Just subscribed
That's very nice of you Ray. I'll watch out for you in the future. Thank you Alan
Stirling born and bred
Charity shield buddy not the world cup a nice video by the way MOT
I was brought up watching that 70 s team not many left alive now such a fantastic crop of player's awsome
Hi alan .I was lucky to see some great players from the 60s and and early 80s you could name most of the players from most teams. did not need name on back of shirt they were hard men now days if you knock the the tele they fall over lol
Very funny. David, I know what you mean. That was the time when men were men.
My first memory of Billy Bremner was the FA cup final of 1973, Leeds v Scumberland, they'll not get there this season, we made sure of that yesterday lol
RIP Billy
Raploch’s finest.
“Side before self, every time.”
John Charles was Leeds United’s best player, King Billy was our best leader.
Basil Dearden also directed the episode of the man forseeing his accident in Dead of night 1945, i only noticed this screening it last month, and that wasn't even mentioned in the uncanny segment of his mini - bio, and the info on his weird accident, neither that his actress wife ( from Dracula 1958 ) died on same date but many years later...hope you visit more people with weird destinies at their resting place.
Hi
I was informed by someone who lives in Edlington Doncaster that Billy Bremner is interned at Edlington Cemetary Doncaster.
he is in stirling scotland
Happy New Year Alan. X
Wishing you good health Free Bird ❤️
@@MotorHomeBeepBeep Thanku, I'm doing good, mobile again x
That is excellent health is wealth keep going forward @@FreeBirdUKVanLife
The service was in Edlington, there is a cemetery there, perhaps his ashes are there? Next time I go, Ill take a look and let you know. Literally down the road from me.
Hi Morgan, let me know that will be interesting. Thank you, Alan
Scum's finest. RIP wee man 🙏
If Billy were engerlish they would be statues everywhere in engerlandsheer, but sadly swept under the carpet,oh remember,leeds, Harvey, Eddie gray, Gordon McQueen, Billy bremner, Andy gray,peter Lorimer,all Scottish players that made the engerlish team what it was!
he has an amazing statue in Leeds and he is adored still by every Leeds supporter .you should go to Elland road and see it
Pretty sure at least some of his ashes were scattered in the goal mouth at the Gelderd Road End. Mine will join them one day, but no rush!
I know nothing about football, Fun walk.
The old original motorhome van 😊
I wonder how many berth and dies a bed come down like our 1960's 24 Foot 6 Berth Caravan. Would it have a loo and a kitchen,please?:)
How come I've managed to get it back? That is the question ❓
World Cup Final with Kevin Keegan lol . That clash happened in a Leeds vs Liverpool league game. My dad was at Hampden Park in that European Cup semi final in 1970 where Bremner scored that goal against Celtic. It wasn't enough to beat Celtic though in front of the biggest ever crowd for a British football match (136,000).
As a child, I loved Leeds United and all the great players they had then. Bremner came from Castlemilk in Glasgow just two miles from where I was raised.
Castlemilk was notorious for the gangs dressed in skinners (jeans) that were rolled up to just above their Doc Martin boots which had steel toe caps inserted into them. The skinhead haircuts and braces made these gangs look f**ing vicious. Bremner was a hard little bastard as opposed to his team mate, Norman (bite yer legs) Hunter who I always though was a make believe hard man. He proved that when Francis Lee battered him in that most famous famous fight.
If you haven't watched 'The Damned United' movie with Michael Sheen as Brian Clough, it is an all time great in my opinion.
Billy Bremner came from Raploch, Stirling......please check your facts, ...he signed for Leeds in December 1959.......long before skinheads and Doc Martins...
@@user-io5tv1rv4v Well googled! It was Eddie Gray that came from Castlemilk. Will you, can you ever forgive my error? As for the asinine comment re skinheads and Doc Martins .... no comment! You are obviously from Tunbridge Wells!
Incorrect the fight with Kevin Keegan was not a league game it was the 1974 Charity Shield Match between Leeds (Champions) and Liverpool (FA cup winners) at Wembley.
@@grahamfoster8446 You see ...the difference is that I write about trivia from the heart and head, whereas people like you, who have nothing better to do than to pick through the most pedantic minutia, checking everything with Wiki, comment from there. If you feel that it is so important, it is you who should be 6ft under, not Billy Bremner. Is this really how you get your rocks off?
aye right ...I'm from Glasgow.....skinheads first appeared in the late 60s@@dicksmall7976
Billy Bremners Barmy Army MOT
Probably put on the pitch at Elland road
A view from the UK. I've though about it long and hard and decided to post. I'm gonna be controversial here and disagree with the eulogies being posted. The Leeds teams that played under Don Revie were one of the dirtiest ever to have graced a field of play. Probably vied for top spot with Chelsea. They kicked skill off the park. Does anyone remember 'Norman Hunter bites your legs'? They kicked their way to success. I know the defence were told to 'stamp your mark with your first tackle' by you know who. I had a good friend called Trevor Cherry, (do your research), whom i played golf with, should anyone require my source.
Sorry bombarding you at the moment. Trying to catch up so binge watching your youtube. Please don't feel you have to reply to all my comments.
Hello Joy, no like your name. It's a joy to read them. I tried to reply to everybody but you know what time is like. And likewise, don't worry if I don't reply to everyone. I understand you understand. You are great! Thank you alan
@@MotorHomeBeepBeep ❤️
billy is up in scotland pal not in donny 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Most fans from that era don’t have any feelings for Bremner me for one disliked him with intent
i suppose when your team is shit you get jealous of the great teams and their great players
@@pauljames1258 firstly my team is in the prem whilst Leeds arnt that how shit my team is. I’m not denying Bremner was a good player but he along with one or two others that era had a nasty streak and they didn’t need to they were all good players .
Billy used to live at the beginning of our street, No2, Plantation Avenue, Leeds 15. As young un’s, we’d regularly kick the ball around on the grass next to his house. Now and then he’d come out and have a kick around with us and he never held back lol.
