James Shaw Ramsey Lennon was a bustling inside forward who spent one season with Prestatyn in 1962/63. he began his career with Scottish non-league side Blantyre Victoria before being snapped up by Falkirk in 1950/1, making 16 appearances and scoring once. However he didn't stay long at Brockville Park and at the end of the season Jimmy was transferred to Linfield but failed to settle with the Belfast blues and returned to Scotland to join Cowdenbeath for whom he made three appearances (no goals). Jimmy then moved 'south' as part of the Scottish revolution at Rhyl and played a part in the Lilywhites' Welsh Cup successes of 51/2 and 52/3, but although featuring in many of the early rounds he failed to pull on the white shirt in either final. After leaving Belle Vur he played for Caernarfon Town before signing for Prestatyn in 1962/3. A popular man, Jimmy is well remembered with great fondness by many of the older generation at Prestatyn Town.
