Former Hibernian striker Lawrie Reilly has died aged 84.
Reilly was an integral part of a golden era in Hibernian's history, making up one of the 'Famous Five' alongside Gordon Smith, Bobby Johnstone, Eddie Turnbull and Willie Ormond to help fire the club to three league titles in the late 1940s and early 1950s.
Reilly was also well renowned on the international stage, scoring 22 goals in 38 appearances for Scotland, including five against England.
"We all feel the loss of a true Hibernian great, but our hearts must go out first to Lawrie's widow Iris and to his family. Our thoughts are with them at this sad time," said Hibernian chairman Rod Petrie.
"The term 'legend' gets bandied about, perhaps too easily, but Lawrie was a genuine legend. He grew up as a Hibernian fan and he spent his entire career with the club he loved. He was undoubtedly one of the club's greatest ever players, revered by all who loved attacking and entertaining football. He was also one of Scotland's greatest ever strikers.
"Lawrie retained his lifelong passion for the club he graced as a player and was a regular attender at matches, a matchday host and was one of the club's champions. He will be sadly missed."
Lawrie, who is Hibernian's top league scorer with 187 goals, was inducted into the Scottish football hall of fame in 2005.
