Biography

A young centre-forward who was given his chance in the final five games of the 1947-48 campaign, George made his debut in a 2-0 home win over Motherwell.

Although he remained on the Dark Blues' books for four seasons, his first team outings could only at best be called spasmodic.

Despite scoring in the opening two games of the following season against Hearts and Clyde, he didn't feature in the first team again, as Dundee finished runners-up in the 1948-49 campaign.

In 1949-50, George scored twice more from only four outings, as a succession of number nine's were tried in the wake of Stott's departure, One League Cup appearances at the start of season 1950-51 proved to be the last of his thirteen appearances
