John O'Hare

[1] O'Hare's clubs included Sunderland, Derby County, Leeds United and also Nottingham Forest and was part of their European Cup victory in 1980, coming on as a substitute in the final.

There was initial criticism of him as he was seen as a large but slow striker, however, their manager Brian Clough, who had coached him at Sunderland, persisted with him and in his second season he justified his fee, establishing a strike partnership with Kevin Hector as they led the Rams to the 1971–72 Football League First Division title.

At County, O'Hare won thirteen caps for the Scotland national team, scoring five goals.

In the 1977–78 season O'Hare played football in the North American Soccer League for Dallas Tornado, with forty appearances and 14 goals.

O'Hare later worked as a part-time chauffeur for Toyota and as a host of the executive/VIP guest suite at Nottingham Forest's home games.
