Former Manchester United and Aberdeen goalkeeper Jim Leighton comes in second, after amassing ninety one caps. Leighton was one of Manchester United bosses Alex Ferguson's first signings when he took over at the Manchester giants, and he won an FA cup winners' medal in 1990.

In third place comes ex-Rangers and newly-appointed national coach, Alex McLeish, who managed to play seventy seven times for his nation.

Paul McStay comes in fourth, with a creditable seventy-six caps for Scotland.

Celtic legend Tommy Boyd comes in at fifth place, as the former hoops player turned out for his country on seventy two occasions.
