~~ I had the great pleasure of meeting Denis Law's family when we were launching our book about Scottish football legends. For me there is no doubt that Denis was the best male Scottish football player ever but more than that he was a devoted family man. I'll never forget the stories his family told me about what he was like as a husband and a father. He will be sorely missed. But his legacy will live on. RIP 'Lawman'. Read more about him in the full blog or in our book, @Fitba Legends'.
