- The Quality Street Gang was a term used by the Scottish media to describe the Celtic reserve team of the late 1960s. Several of the group eventually replaced members of the Lisbon Lions team that had won the European Cup in 1967. George Connelly, Kenny Dalglish, Davie Hay, Danny McGrain, Lou Macari and Paul Wilson all went on to win major honours at Celtic and were capped by Scotland. In August 1968, Celtic Reserves needed to defeat Partick Thistle Reserves by at least seven goals to win their section over Rangers Reserves. Celtic won 12–0, with Macari scoring four goals. Later that same year Scotland manager Bobby Brown asked Celtic manager Jock Stein to supply players to provide opposition for a warm-up practice match. Stein sent his young reserve side, and they went on to defeat a full strength Scotland international team (including Colin Stein and Billy Bremner) 5–2. In August 1970, Celtic fielded several of their so-called Quality Street Gang youths in the Glasgow Cup Final against a full strength Rangers side, winning 3–1. (en)
