IAIN PHILLIP - 70'S CENTRE HALF

Iain Phillip was a real classy player, who, after a couple of appearances as sub, made his full team debut on 19th Sept 1970 against St. Mirren at Dens.
He was with the club for nearly 10 years, signing in 1968 and ending his time there in Sept 1978. Why it wasn't the full 10 years is because he had a stint at Crystal Palace in 1972, which was pretty short lived, and when he came back to Dens in 1973 he was in the team who lifted the Scottish League Cup that year.
He made a total of 253 full appearances for the Dee and has also played at international level for Scotland.
