Dordogne_Ram Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Always sorry to hear of the passing of one of "our team". IIRC, Jeff was the first Derby County substitute who was then himself substituted (through injury), during one of the European ties - forget which one, may have been v AEK Athens at the BBG. ?

RamNut Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Rip jeff. Was it 73/74 when he got into the team at the start of the season and scored a quite few goals? Was signed by Terry Venebles at the start of his time with crystal palace and did well there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

admira Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Here's a bit more about his career from Wiki.Bourne began his career with non league club Burton Albion before signing with Derby County in February 1971.He saw limited time with the first team, playing mostly with the reserves until January 1974.He finished the 1973-1974 season with nine goals as Derby County finished third in the standings.He found himself back with the reserves the next season, with occasional stretches of first team.In 1976, Derby County loaned Bourne to the Dallas Tornado of the North American Soccer League (NASL).When it became apparent that Bourne would never be more than a sporadic player with the club, Derby County sold his contract to Crystal Palace F.C. for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PistoldPete2 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Always sorry to hear of the passing of one of "our team". IIRC, Jeff was the first Derby County substitute who was then himself substituted (through injury), during one of the European ties - forget which one, may have been v AEK Athens at the BBG. ? "Sleep well, young man". I remember him and I think Alan Hinton coming on as subs in a European tie. They made a big impact and we turned round a losing situation at the BBG to a win. Barry Davies line when Bourne took a return pass was "Bourne again", also referring to the Rams comeback. Sadly , he wont be "Bourne again" , but he wont be forgotten.
