Jimmy Millar (footballer, born 1934)

James Millar (20 November 1934 – 20 October 2022) was a Scottish professional footballer who played for Dunfermline Athletic, Rangers, Dundee United and the Scotland national team, mainly as a centre forward.

Millar achieved more success when he played at centre forward in a pre-season tour of America and started scoring goals regularly.

[1][2] Millar was an integral part of the Rangers team of the early 1960s, alongside players such as Bobby Shearer, Eric Caldow, Davie Wilson, John Greig, Jim Baxter and Alex Scott.

[1][5][2] In the summer of 1967, Millar left Rangers for Dundee United and became manager of Raith Rovers for a brief spell after retiring, before owning a pub in Leith.

[6] In 2017, his family revealed that for the past decade Millar had been suffering from dementia, a condition they believed to be linked to his heading a football.
