There aren't many footballers who can say they managed to keep the late legend Pelé at bay - but one Edinburgh man's quite literally been there, done it, and swapped the T-shirt.
In 1975, ex-Hibs defender Alex Pringle, who had played at Easter Road alongside the 'Turnbull's Tornadoes' greats such as Pat Stanton and Alex Cropley, relocated to a place where there were actual tornadoes.
Joining Florida's Tampa Bay Rowdies, Pringle was among a host of top European footballers and internationally-recognised stars of his era to join the then fledgling North American Soccer League (NASL).
