Re: Hibs Legend Dies.
Willie played 59 games for Hibs in competitive games, scoring 1 goal from 1946/1947 until 1949/50.
His only goal came against Hearts on New Years day 1947 at Tynecastle in a 3-2 win: Gordon Smith and Eddie Turnbull were the other scorers.
In Hibs championship winning season he played in 15 of the 30 league games.
RIP
Edit:
The Scotsman newspaper of 2nd January 1947 reports:
"Hearts hope of saving the game was extinguished when Finnigan put Hibs two up again" Willie scored the third that day.
