Davie Milne (1872)

Biography

Davie, formerly of Ardenlea, trialled for the club in friendlies over New Year period in 1892 before playing his first competitive match in a Northern League fixture against Montrose in late January. He became a regular fixture in the team from here on in, before leaving the town in late March 1894 to move to Lanark for work, although he did return to play in the Charity Cup Final at the end of that season.

In October 1895, he featured for St Bernard's against Dundee.
