Starlet wants away
Despite having a good side in 1967, all was not perfect in Gus McLean's squad. The club was awaiting a good offer after accepting Ernie Phythian's transfer request, and in mid-December it was the turn of John McGovern to put his wishes in writing. McGovern's request was turned down, and he remained at the Vic for the rest of the season.
