Tom Donegan

Biography

Tom was signed in early August 1954 after impressing in pre-season trials, the former Dumbarton man immediately coming into the team, making the right wing position his own and not missing a competitive game during the 1954-55 season. He continued as a regular for the following campaign up until mid-March when he began to miss games due to work commitments, and at the end of the season he was given a free transfer.
