Remember him from when I was a kid as he was the youngest ever player to play in a cup final for Preston against West Ham.
Actually saw him play for Blackburn at Upton Park in about 1980 in the latter years of his playing career before he went into management.
Will probably be remembered best for being the Everton manager in the mid 80's when he took Everton to two league titles, despite city rivals Liverpool ruling the roost at the time.
Also during that period from 83 to 87 Everton were a really exciting team to watch.
