jimmy mcstay

james frederick `` jimmy '' mcstay -lrb- 12 september 1893 -- 3 january 1974 -rrb- was a scottish football player and manager .
he spent most of his career at celtic , and was a captain and manager for the club .
he took over the club captaincy from his brother , willie mcstay , in 1929 .
mcstay managed the club between 9 february 1940 and 23 july 1945 .
however , this coincided with the suspension of the scottish cup and scottish football league during wartime , meaning he never had the opportunity to manage the club in competition .
he also managed alloa athletic and hamilton academical .
mcstay 's great-nephews , paul and willie , also played for celtic in the 1980s and 1990s .
