A spooky Callum McGregor lookalike has turned up on twitter- dating back to 1959!
Wearing an Arsenal style kit the midfielder appears to have been here before in a school team that featured Vic Davidson of famous Quality Street Gang.
Davidson was a team-mate of Kenny Dalglish, Lou Macari and Danny McGrain as they emerged in the late sixties to challenge the Lisbon Lions.

After various bursts of first team activity he was released on a free transfer in 1975 where he joined a successful Motherwell team managed by Willie McLean.
In March 79, facing a hectic run of fixtures Billy McNeill signed Davidson from Blackpool with that season having a happy ending with Davidson a substitute in the 4-2 match.
A year later he was on the bench at Hampden as Celtic beat Rangers (IL) 1-0 to lift the Scottish Cup.
Twenty four years after his last Celtic appearance young McGregor appeared, under Brendan Rodgers Callum’s game is going from strength playing in a variety of positions.
