The 65-year-old received the honour for his services to charity from the Princess Royal at Windsor Castle on Tuesday.
Former Rangers manager and Scotland player Alex McLeish has compared the nerves of being made an OBE to “like a cup final”.
Asked how it felt to receive his OBE, McLeish told the PA news agency: “Well it was pretty thrilling but also I was quite nervous, a bit like in a cup final. McLeish said his charity work began during his playing days at Aberdeen, when he was encouraged to get involved by famous manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
McLeish described his continued campaigning as “an amazing journey”, adding: “It’s been an illness over the years and nobody wants to talk about it, but getting it out there into the ether has been vital for the campaign.”Glasgow-born McLeish made nearly 700 appearances as a player for Aberdeen and during his time there won the 1983 European Cup Winners’ Cup, the European Super Cup, three Scottish Premier Division titles, five Scottish Cups, and two Scottish League cups.
