A great signing for us, very significant as I have just posted on the deathwatch thread.  Very sorry to hear the news.

OMG I loved  him - captain of our team when we got promotion back to Div`1 - like chico, Jimmy Cumbes and Aitken for various reasons not quite there  when we got back but played a full season in the top divison.  RIP Ian

Our former skipper Ian Ross has very sadly passed away aged 72. 175 games for us in the early to mid 70's winning promotion and the league cup in '75
