Sir Alex Ferguson, Ally McCoist and Frank Lampard among host of football's biggest names at memorial service for former Rangers, Scotland and Everton manager Walter Smith

Sir Alex Ferguson and Ally McCoist were among those paying tribute to former Rangers, Scotland and Everton manager Walter Smith at a public memorial service in Glasgow.

Smith was on Ferguson's coaching teams for a spell at both Manchester United and Scotland while McCoist spent years playing under his mentor before assisting him for both Scotland and Rangers.

A private family funeral was held earlier this month following Smith's death at the age of 73, but the service at Glasgow Cathedral allowed many football figures to remember their former colleague and opponent.
