When they folded a few years later, I asked him to become my No 2 at Broughty Athletic JFC, a post he accepted.” I’ve never heard of a Hydro Dynamo in Dundee junior football. Is he getting mixed up with an amateur club? https://www.eveningtelegraph.co.uk/fp/blether-tayside-footballer-ian-receives-telegram-from-the-queen/ Hydro Dynamo were two season wonders in the Tayside Juniors from 1975-77. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
