| Jabba's Comments |
Experienced Scottish international inside forward who had won
his first cap with Albion Rovers before a transfer to Hearts saw
him win his second and make his reputation as a goalscorer. When he
came down to Leeds, he was joint top scorer in his first full
season, and although he scored consistently after that, was never
in the side for close enough to a full campaign to be able to
repeat the feat. He died in early 1986.
Jeff Trice says: John played for Margate in the Southern League
during the 34/35 season.
