Career

Young signed for Celtic from Neilston Waverly in June 1961. He played 145 games for the club in major competitions, scoring three times,[3] and won the Scottish Cup in 1965 and the Scottish Football League Championship in 1965–66.[4] Also among these appearances were 19 in European competition, including both legs of the European Cup Winners' Cup semi-final against MTK Budapest in 1964, and both legs of the semi-final of the same competition against Liverpool in 1966. He lost his place soon afterwards to the more attacking Jim Craig.[2]

Young signed for St Mirren in the summer of 1968, where he played for a further two years, but his career ended at the age of 27 from a serious knee injury.[4][2]

Young was capped once at Under-23 level for Scotland, playing at Aberdeen's Pittodrie Stadium in a 0–0 draw against England in February 1965.[5][6]
