About George Duncan

Lived 1937 – 2012 (aged 75). George Duncan was an association football player and accountant.

George Duncan (16 January 1937 – 4 February 2012) was a Scottish footballer who played as a winger.

Career Duncan began his career at Scottish non-league club Kirkintilloch Rob Roy, before signing for Rangers in 1957. On 22 February 1958, Duncan made his Rangers debut in a 5–1 home win against Queen's Park. On 8 March 1958, Duncan scored his first goals for the club, scoring two in a 3–1 away win against Clyde.
