FELLOW LISBON LION Jim Craig has led the outpouring of grief and sympathy for the family and friends of Stevie Chalmers who has passed away this morning, just one week after his captain Billy McNeill.
“Too awful for words to lose another brother within a week of Billy. RIP my friend and team-mate Stevie Chalmers,” Jim said and Chris Sutton has also paid his respects, “Such a sad week. RIP Stevie Chalmers,” he wrote.

Difficult to take this news in. Two heroes of Lisbon and countless other battles gone within days of each other. Both legends scored in this famous treble-winning 4-0 Cup Final victory over Rangers in April 1969. Rest in peace, Billy and Stevie. ???????????????? pic.twitter.com/ZWKJowxx4D
