Jack Lornie

Jack Lornie Date of Birth: Feb 23, 1939

Scottish Schoolboy international Jack was snapped up by Leicester in March 1958 from junior club Banks O’Dee. Although scoring on his League debut for the Foxes he was always regarded as reserve centre-forward at Filbert Street and made only eight appearances (including one against Luton) in three years before signing for Luton in 1961 for £3,500.

Although never letting the side down, as proved by his six goals in 19 League appearances, he was playing in a side that was slipping down the divisions at Kenilworth Road and he left for Carlisle as the Hatters plunged into Division Three in 1963.

Subsequently turning out for Tranmere and Ross County, Jack moved back to Aberdeen but passed away in Inverness in 2014.
