When Archie Gourlay started his senior career with Greenock Morton, he blossomed so quickly that many observers suggested he had a promising career laying ahead. This seemed correct, because Newcastle United were eager to sign him, in 1988 they bought him and took him to St James Park, but he failed to make the expected impression and was soon back at Cappielow on loan. When he signed for Motherwell in March 1992 it was hoped Tommy McLean could get the best out of him but again he made little to no no impression and after making only three substitute appearances he was back on the road again, this time he joined Hartlepool United where only a solitary first team appearance would be made.
