John Tubby Ogston

[Torry Tosser]

Thought I'd make my first posting a tribute to Tubby Ogston who passed away last week.

Tubby was a local lad and one of our best ever keepers,he played 164 continuous games from 1962-1965 and was capped 8 times at Under 23 level.

When Bobby Clark emerged as No1,Tubby was transferred to Liverpool.

After he retired he at one time was a school janitor,a lovely family man.

Tubby up till last year was still a regular at Pittodrie cheering the Dons on...

RIP Tubby.
