Biography

Alan Lawrence was winger who impressed so much against Dundee for Meadowbank in a Scottish Cup tie that went to a second replay that Jocky Scott bought him to Dens Park.

He made his debut in a 2-2 draw against Hibs at Easter Road in March 1987.

Alan served the club for two years, appearing in 41 competitive games, though roughly a third of these were from the subs bench, and he scored four goals. Gordon Wallace was the manager when he left the club in a swap deal that brought Gordon McLeod to Dens Park.

Alan played for several seasons for the Broomfield club before joining Hearts. He had several seasons there before moving back to Airdrie Played in Scottish Cup Finals with Airdrie.

In addition, he served Partick Thistle, and Stenhousemuir before finishing his days as a senior with Cowdenbeath as recently as last season.

Even when Alan turned forty, he was still strutting his stuff for then East Region Super League championship challengers Bathgate.
