One-game wonder who must have been living out of a suitcase for
most of the time. John (or Jack as he is in some records) Finlay moved
south of the border to New Brighton FC, but only spent 3 months there
before moving to Leeds in a £6,000 that brought Bill Heggie to
Elland Road. Since he never played for the first team and Finlay only
managed the single game, this must rank as one of the less successful
transfer deals in the history of the club. He moved on to Southern
League outfit Yeovil before returning to league football for a year
with Walsall.
