| Calum Campbell |
 Calum Campbell was born on Sunday, 7th November, 1965, in Erskine, Renfrewshire. The 6' 1 (12st 0lbs) forward signed for John Lambie's Thistle on Saturday, 12th August, 1989, having most recently been with Airdrieonians. Aged 23, he made his debut appearance on Saturday, 12th August, 1989, in a 2-1 win away to Clydebank in the SFL First Division. That day, Calum became a member of our scoring debutant's club. He scored the last of his 23 goals on Saturday, 16th March, 1991, in a 4-2 defeat at home to Meadowbank Thistle in the SFL First Division. He played his last game for the club on Saturday, 30th March, 1991, in a 0-0 draw at home to Ayr United in the SFL First Division, having appeared as a Jag on 68 occasions. Calum's club-list included Ardrossan Winton Rovers, Kilbirnie Ladeside, Airdrieonians, Partick Thistle, Kilmarnock, Dumbarton, Irvine Meadow XI, Saltcoats Victoria and Benburb. |
 John Lambie signed this striker from Airdrie literally just hours before the start of the 89/90 season and he made an immediate impact scoring a debut goal just minutes into the opening day fixture at Clydebank. Campbell was in excellent form that season, particularly in the first few months, and would finish the season as top scorer with 19 goals, 13 of which were scored before the tum of the year. The following season wasn't so successful with only 5 goals to his name, 3 of which come against Kilmarnock, the club he would leave Thistle to join a few months later. |
