Frank Connor hailed 'Celtic through and through' as Lou Macari pays tribute

Tributes have flooded in for former Celtic goalkeeper, coach and caretaker manager Frank Connor who passed away on Thursday aged 86.

Ex-Hoops boss Lou Macari described the Airdrie-born coach as a “Celtic man through and through” who helped steady the ship for his own arrival at Parkhead during a turbulent time.

After a three-year spell at the Hoops as assistant to David Hay, which brought Scottish Cup success in 1985 and the league title a year later, Connor took over as manager of Raith Rovers and led the Fifers to promotion back into the first division before moving on to assist Joe Jordan at Hearts.
