George Niven

George died 17th July 2008 aged 79. He was goalkeeper for Rangers FC from 1951 - 1962 when he moved to Partick Thistle 1962 - 1969. He is probably best known as 7-1 Niven or "Hampden in the Sun" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hampden_in_the_sun

 

He played in goals for the local team.

I've known George since the 70's when he came to live and work in Carrbridge.

He will be missed.
