Jimmy Lumsden is best remembered by modern day Leeds fans as the
screaming second-in-command who stood beside Eddie Gray in those dark
Division 2 days, but he had spent 6 years with the club in the late
1960s, captaining the reserves before moving on to a more active
playing career in Scotland. Lumsden followed Eddie Gray in management
to Rochdale and linked up with another Leeds old boy - Joe Jordan - at
Bristol City.
Frank Coughlan says: Maybe i'm wrong, but didn't Jimmy play in the
league of Ireland with Cork Hiberians in and around the mid-'70s?
Jabba says: you're right, he had a brief spell at Cork Hibernians in
1973 between his time with St Mirren and his return to Morton.
cozi says: Jimmy coached us at Fairburn Athletic under 16's! for a
few months!
Derry Barrett says: I saw Jimmy Lumsden play on numerous occasions
with Cork Hibernians, most notably in a pre-season friendly against
the then FA cup holders Sunderland and score the winner direct from a
free kick.
