PROFILE
A talented attacking midfielder, whose multiple array of skills at times delighted
the Anfield crowd, but his inconsistency in turn irated Reds' fans. Jimmy signed from
Edinburgh club Hibernian in January 1958 when he was 22 years old. He had played 12 First
Division matches by the end of that season, scoring twice. He only missed 5 league
fixtures the following season and added another 6 goals to his total. 1959-60 was a year
of change at Anfield, caused by Bill Shankly's arrival half-way through the season and for
a while the new manager couldn't seem to decide between Harrower or Jimmy Melia for the
inside-left position. But before the end of the following season, Melia was established in
the side and it was clear that Jimmy's future lay elsewhere. He moved on to Newcastle
United in March 1961.
