Syd Millar
Biography
Syd was signed from Forfar Celtic in mid-August 1949 after impressing as a trialist with the reserves, making his debut in December of that year in a league game against Albion Rovers. He made another 12 appearances between his debut and the end of the 1949-50 campaign, mainly being used at inside right. He started the following campaign at centre forward but dropped out in early September, making just one further appearance, before being released at the end of the season and signing for Brechin City ahead of the 1951-52 campaign.
