Jackie Sinclair

| Place of birth | Culross |
| Nationality | Scottish |
| Position | Midfielder |
Sinclair's fine record at Leicester City led to his expensive move to St James' Park. Able to operate on either flank, it was intended that he would supply the ammunition for big Wyn Davies. Although it didn't work out as he would have wished, he did score in the thrilling Fairs Cup Semi-Final win against Rangers.
