An experienced inside forward with two Scotland caps, Jimmy Watson was brought to East End to supply the craft and guile needed to take the Pars back up to the First Division.

A player who believed in letting the ball do the work, Jimmy`s subtle touch and sublime passing were impressive as were his 35 goals, including four hat-tricks. One last season at the top level followed before he hung up his boots, his final game being the remarkable 10-1 victory over Partick Thistle.

Died 11 April 1996.
