Back in 76 or 77 we had a young centre forward who played in the u18s against Crystal Palace in the the Youth Cup final , later playing a few first team games before moving on to Norwich, Ross Jack. He's now manager of Turriff United in the Highland League , having managed a few teams like err, Elgin City.
He played for Dunfermline didn't he? I remember I had a sticker of him when I was a lad.
 
ETA: I was going to say Watson, but someone beat me to it. Peter Beardsley's there as well, he's Football Development Manager.


Remember reading about someone who had just left Newcastle and saying what a horrible toxic club it was/is from top to bottom. The youth team had just played away and got a heavy beatin. After the game the team got showered and changed and all strolled out laughing and joking like it didn't matter as they thought they'd all already made it, and got onto an executive coach 5 star travel and all that malarkey. The fella who seen it said they'd just launched there kit towels etc everywhere, as he walked through the changing room there was a fella picking up all the bits and pieces and he was shocked to see it was Beardsley pushing around a laundry hamper sorting it all out.

Awful club that just behind those rats across the park

Yea he did. It's strange , but i remembered him because he was this young guy running out with a huge smile on his face. There are lots of people called "Ross Jack" in Scotland and it wasn't until I moved to not far from Elgin where he was managing that I picked his name up again. I saw him three weeks ago when Turrif were top of the League but they lost 1-0 that day.
 

AVdM is a top level ref these days:

According to the mirror kanchelskis applied for vacant managerial post at Derry City, as a stepping stone towards managing in England. Can't post a link on mobile.
