Jim Baxter was a supremely gifted Scottish midfielder whose languid left foot and cool arrogance made him an idol at Rangers in the 1960s. Nicknamed for his slender build, he dictated matches with a swagger and a mastery of the ball that few could match.

He is remembered above all for tormenting England at Wembley, famously playing keep-ball against the world champions. A dazzling talent, his career burned brightly if not always fully realised.
