Herriot was an apprentice bricklayer playing part-time for Junior club Douglasdale before he joined Dunfermline Athletic in 1958.

1963

He became the Pars established number 1 when Eddie Connachan left for Middlesbrough in 1963.

Herriot adopted the American Football technique of applying boot polish under and around his eyes to reduce the effects of glare from the sun.

1965

Herriot helped Dunfermline reach the 1965 Scottish Cup Final, which they lost 3–2 to Celtic.

Herriot was transferred to Birmingham City for £18,000 in 1965.

He was a fixture in the City side during the next four-and-a-half years and eventually gained international recognition.

1968

He made his Scotland debut in October 1968, in a 1–0 defeat by Denmark in a friendly in Copenhagen, and played a further seven times for the national side.

His last cap came just a year after his first, in a 3–2 defeat by West Germany in a FIFA World Cup qualifier in Hamburg.

1970

By 1970 Herriot had fallen from favour at St Andrew's and, following loan spells with Mansfield Town and Aston Villa, he left for South African club Durban City.

1971

He returned to Britain in 1971, joining Eddie Turnbull's developing Hibernian side.

1972

With Hibs he won his first career honour, the 1972–73 Scottish League Cup, as well as the fledgling Drybrough Cup on two occasions.

1977

Herriot is probably best known today for giving his name to the writer James Herriot, a Yorkshire vet whose real name was Alf Wight.

Wight needed a pen-name to comply with professional rules banning advertising and chose Jim Herriot's name after seeing him play for Birmingham City in a televised match against Manchester United.
