BBC Scotland snub latest honour for Lisbon Lions

The Lisbon Lions have topped a two day poll to find the greatest football team of all time. 

The BBC poll relied heavily on previous European Cup winners with Jock Stein’s side breaking the southern European stranglehold when they beat Inter Milan 2-1 in the 1967 final. 

Liverpool, Manchester United, Barcelona and Real Madrid all had teams nominated in the poll but despite a Scottish winner BBC Scotland have kept the result away from their website pages. 

The poll closed at 5pm, since then BBC Scotland have reported on the new contract for Steve Davis alongside features relating to the Scotland v Ukraine match tomorrow night. 

Leading the way on the homepage is The Craig Levein column which will be of limited interest, in terms of international football his legacy will be fielding a Scotland side without a forward for a match against the Czech Republic. 

Both the Daily Record and Scottish Sun have reported on the latest award for the Lisbon Lions but for whatever reason BBC Scotland have opted out of reporting on an in-house poll.
