John Livingstone "Ian" McMillan (18 March 1931 – 16 February 2024) was a Scottish footballer who played as an inside forward for Airdrieonians, Rangers and the Scotland national team.
[8] He scored 102 goals in 249 league appearances over ten years for the club[9] in this spell, in the role of scheming inside-forward (a creative midfield position in today's football parlance).
[11] Despite his prominent role at a major club, he also continued to work in his other profession as a mining surveyor as he had done as a part-time player.
[8] McMillan was capped six times by the Scotland national team between 1952 and 1961, scoring twice – both against the United States in April 1952.
McMillan was in Scotland's 22-man 1954 World Cup squad, but the SFA decided to take only 13 of the group to the finals, with McMillan staying at home on reserve with the likes of Bobby Combe and Jimmy Binning (inside forward George Hamilton was also on reserve, but travelled after Bobby Johnstone withdrew through injury).
