Jimmy Dobson
Date of Birth: 29-01-1906
Position: Winger
Joined: 15-10-1932
Appearances: 137
Substitute Appearances:
Goals: 47
Nationality: Scottish
Previous Clubs: Hibernian
Subsequent Clubs:
Born: Leith
Debut against Dumbarton. SL2
Last game against Arbroath. SL1
A tremendous scoring record for Tranent Juniors earned centre-forward Jimmy Dobson a move to Hibernian in 1929 but he couldn`t hold down a regular berth at Easter Road.
Dunfermline switched him to the right wing where he developed an unorthodox style in which he used his pace to cut inside and shoot from any angle. This provided a good number of match-winning goals but also criticism from traditionalists who wanted him to hug the touchline. An ever-present in the 1933/34 promotion-winning team, a cartilage operation caused him miss most of his final season at East End.
