Playing career
Born in Milngavie, McKechnie started out with Bridgeton Waverley before joining Rangers, but never appeared in the Scottish League. He left for Kirkintilloch Rob Roy before moving south of the border to Luton Town in 1961.[3] He spent five years in Bedfordshire before moving to Boscombe and Bournemouth Athletic, where he spent a year. He then spent a season at Colchester United before moving into non-League football with Bury Town.[2]
gollark: ```Eggs and hatchlings can become sick when they receive too many views, unique views, and clicks in a short period of time. Although sickness can occur at any time, eggs are most vulnerable when first laid. If an egg or hatchling continues to receive too many views, unique views, and clicks while sick, it may die.To “cure” an egg or hatchling of sickness, simply reduce the rate at which it is receiving views, unique views, and clicks. This may be as simple as removing the egg or hatchling from any sites you have posted it on. Since the hide action prevents eggs and hatchlings from receiving views, unique views, and clicks, it can be a useful tool at combating sickness.```
gollark: Oh? I thought it was good.
gollark: Well, you partly were, but whatever.
gollark: Especially since we don't *want* attack.
gollark: And it ***IS*** flawed. Why? Because it makes defense harder than attack.
