Insider right who didn't have much luck. Having just started to
establish himself at Leeds, George Ainsley was picked up and took his
place. Then, having signed for Grimsby, the war broke out before he
could play.
Craig says: John Thomson was signed as an 18 year old, after Leeds
officials had watched him on a number of occasions, playing for
Loanhead Station Ironworks team. He is described as 5ft 10ins, and
'well built'. Dalkeith Advertiser 19 July 1934 |
Have your say
Did you see John Thomson play? Did you meet him in a pub, go to
school with him, decorate his house or buy a motor from him? If
you've got any comments or stories about John Thomson on or off the
pitch, just fill in the form below and (provided they're not blatantly
libellous) I'll add them to this page. And just a quick note to the spammers
who try to add their links to this page by attempting to get round the client-side
validation: don't bother - the server side does similar checks and throws your
garbage straight into the bit bucket.
