    Your greatest Scottish sporting figure of all time?

    One to ponder with Hibs going into cold storage for a few weeks.

    I was going to post this on the 'Other sports' forum but I imagine some might opt for a Hibs player so I think it's OK on here

    For me it's a toss-up between Sir Alex Ferguson and Sir Andy Murray.

    Chris Hoy has got to be in the mix as well.

    The hearts ******* that he is.

    One out of left field...Colin Montgomery.

    Maybe no majors but more than made up for it in other ways.

    I think the winner must also have a quintessentially Scottish name, and Jocky Wilson covers it.

    Aiden McGeady!

    Seriously Murray, always loved tennis and supported Henman all the way then a boy from Scotland with Hibs links and the Dunblane background came along and won Wimbledon twice the US Open and the Olympics. I’ve never felt so gutted for anyone when he cried after his final loss then came back to trounce Fed’ in the London games.

    After that David Gray.

    I agree with all those previously mentioned, I'd add David Sole and Jim Clark to the list
