DAVIE SWAN - LEFT BACK - 1966-70

Here's a young looking Davie Swan with an unfamiliar crew cut, the picture taken in the late 60's.
Davie played left back for Dundee, debuting in 1966.
Although he was with the club for a few years, he only participated in 44 full games, his final outing in dark blue being in March 1970.
One of his career highlights was playing in the semi final of the Fairs Cup against Leeds in 1968, with a 24,000 crowd at Dens roaring them on.
He later opted for a sensible side parting!

Davie was a colleague of the schyster Henry McLeish in a Scottish under age team. I did get him a mention in an Off The Ball team (as Davie Swan Lake)...Tommy McLean was on the show and confirmed that he also played for Kilmarnock.
