	English Football - Billy Bremner
		Bremner, a diminutive but hard midfield player, was scouted by Leeds while playing schoolboy football in Scotland and signed for the Elland Road club in 1959, the day after his 17th birthday.
		Bremner played magnificently as Leeds finally put the near-misses aside over the previous six seasons and won the 1974 League championship at a canter, setting a record of 29 unbeaten games to start the season which was only beaten by Arsenal in 2004.
		Bremner was inducted into the English Football Hall of Fame in 2004 in recognition of his impact on the English league.

	Billy Bremner (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Bremner was quickly made captain of the team after Bobby Collins’ injury in 66, the team had been promoted to the top flight in 63/64 but under Bremner’s stewardship they continued their improvement going on to challenge Manchester United’s dominance finally ripping the Championship away from Manchester in 1968/69.
		Bremner’s actions were not commendable, but they typified the nature of the man, he represented an anti-hero, he was the ultimate spoiler, the game’s best stopper, no matter how good the opposition’s star player was, Bremner would take him out of the game.
		Sadly, Billy Bremner died in 1997, from a heart attack, but his indomitable strength and spirit and his overwhelming desire to win, defined a great era in football and he typified a midfield tiger.

		Billy Bremner, who died at Doncaster Royal Infirmary aged 54 following a heart attack, was a footballer consumed not merely by a passion for playing football but by the desire to win them.
		Bremner was the master of the disguised pass, with the foot dragged over the ball at the last second.
		Bremner's philosophy, set out in his autobiography, encapsulated the growing sourness of the English game in the 1960s and 1970s: "Gamesmanship is something which is practiced and accepted as part of the stock in trade by most teams these days," he wrote.

		Billy Bremner is one of the world's top footballers - possibly one of the greatest players ever.

	Billy Bremner - No Ifs, Buts, Maybes - Gadfly Records - CD
		But playing the good soldier was Bremner, the other guitarist, whose chiming fretwork, songwriting craft, and appealing harmonies rounded out their largely retro-1950s sound.
		Since then, unfortunately, Bremner has largely existed in the shadows, releasing just two albums in some 20 years.
		What Bremner has succeeded in doing is to create something wonderfully new out of something old, he's taken a patented approach to riffs, rhythms and melodic vocals, and refashioned them into a familiar sound that still manages to feel fresh and vital.

		However, my strongest my strongest memories of Bremner were of sitting next to him in the directors' box at Donny Rovers on 2 occasions during his first stint as manager, courtesy of my grandfather being leader of the local council at the time.
		billy scobbie says: i never seen billy bremner play even though im related to him hes always drove me on wanting to get better at football i think he is scotlands greatest ever player.
		My abiding memory of Billy after his playing days was when he had been sacked by Leeds, as he was getting into his car he spoke to the press with so much dignity and love for the club and without a shadow of bitterness.

	Billy Bremner, Bash! (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Scottish rock guitarist, singer and composer Bremner has played with a lot of these folks and their influence on his music is so great that at times he can pass as any one of these rocker's clones.
		Next, Bremner joined the Pretenders, playing lead on their hit "Back on the Chain Gang" and its fabulous B-side "My City Was Gone." His axe work on the latter track makes it one of my favorite electric guitar rock songs of all time.
		Bremner's "devil may care" attitude is further exemplified by his use of cars to express his feelings toward life.

		The photo, one of two famous images taken during Scotland's epic 0-0 battle with Brazil in Frankfurt in 1974, showed an irate Rivelino with his fist under Bremner's chin and was taken, according to the Brazilian midfield general, just after Bremner had tried to lay him out with a well-placed smack to the skull.
		The referee was savvy enough to know what Bremner was up to and both he and Rivelino stayed on the field for the rest of the game.
		Bremner and his Brazilian nemesis fought it out again, with Rivelino coming out on top for the third time in their four meetings.

		Desperate to appease the fans angry at Eddie Gray's sacking and very short of money, the board turned to Billy Bremner in an attempt to finally drag Leeds back to the top flight.
		Bremner embodied the spirit of the club under Don Revie, and the hope was that he could instil some of that into the players and finally manage to pull the club clear of lower division football.
		Bremner had managed Doncaster Rovers and achieved reasonable success on a shoestring, selling some useful players along the way - including Ian Snodin, with whom he linked up again at Leeds.

	Billy Bremner (Rockpile) - No Ifs, Buts, Maybes :: Not Lame Recordings - power pop and melodic rock record label, music ...
		Bremner of course was in Rockpile along with Edmunds and Nick Lowe and "No Ifs, Buts, Maybes" evokes the spirit of Rockpile better than probably a reformed Rockpile would do, quite honestly.
		Thinking it a good time to consolidate their careers around the band and put their solo doings on hold, Lowe and Edmunds acquiesced and a Rockpile album was born.
		Rockpile may be gone but Bremner`s still piling on the RAWK - and it just keeps getting better and better all the time.

		Originally released in 1984, four years after Rockpile's one official album, guitarist Billy Bremner's first solo LP makes him appear to be the George Harrison of the band.
		Like Harrison, Bremner is a distinctive guitarist, and though an able songwriter and singer, his contributions were often overshadowed by those of his bandmates (Nick Lowe and Dave Edmunds).
		Billy's more recent album, also on Gadfly Records ["A Good Week's Work"] is also VERY worthy of your attention.
