Jim had a relatively short playing career at Newtown but he made a huge impact. Signed in the summer of 1983 from Armadale Thistle. The 5 ft 10 centre forward was very skilful. He made his debut at home to the wee rose and scored in a 2-2 draw. In fact he developed a penchant for scoring against them, scoring 10 in 10 competitive games in two seasons. He scored 30 goals in his first season, including 5 on the way to lifting the Junior Cup. He also scored the winner in that years Brown Cup Final. The following season he hit another 20 goals, including a double over the wee rose in the East of Scotland Cup Final. Stenhousemuir came a calling at the season's end.
