Ex Liverpool & Scotland midfielder Cormack dies

Former Liverpool and Scotland midfielder Peter Cormack has died at the age of 78.

Cormack, who earned nine international caps, won two league titles, the Uefa Cup and FA Cup during a four-year spell at Anfield between 1972 and 1976 working under manager Bill Shankly.

Born in Edinburgh, he was a youth signing with Heart of Midlothian, but it was with city rivals Hibs where he broke into the first team, playing 182 times across seven years before moving to Nottingham Forest, Liverpool and Bristol City, with whom he won the Anglo-Scottish Cup.

He returned to Scotland for a second spell at Easter Road before finishing his playing career with Partick Thistle.

Cormack began his managerial career with Thistle and also had spells in charge of Anorthosis, Botswana, Cowdenbeath and Greenock Morton.
