Jimmy O'Rourke (footballer)
Jimmy O'Rourke (18 September 1946 – 15 November 2022) was a Scottish footballer who played as a striker for Hibernian, St Johnstone and Motherwell.

O'Rourke then became a key player in Eddie Turnbull's side of the early 1970s that reached the 1972 Scottish Cup Final and won the League Cup Final later that year.

O'Rourke was controversially transferred to St Johnstone in 1974 to make way for Joe Harper, who had been brought in from Everton at great expense.
