Celtic legend Jimmy Johnstone dies at 61 after a long battle with motor neurone disease.
Final farewell for Celtic legend
The funeral service of football legend Jimmy Johnstone has got under way in Uddingston.
The former Celtic and Scotland winger, nicknamed Jinky, died on Monday after a long battle with motor neurone disease.
His former Lisbon Lion team-mates, the Old Firm managers and Celtic's current first team joined mourners at the St John the Baptist Church.
After the service the cortege will travel through the east end of Glasgow to allow people to pay their respects.
The Lisbon Lions team, with captain Billy McNeill, current Rangers manager Alex McLeish and former Rangers players Ally McCoist and John Greig attended the service.
Author William McIlvanney and Glasgow councillor Alex Mosson were also at the church to pay their respects.
Police were expecting thousand of fans to line the route and planned to close roads for up to two hours.
The procession will make its way to Celtic Park, where fans have already left scarves, shirts and written tributes to arguably the finest exponent of the Scottish game.
