Derek Stark Football player
Derek Stark (born 19 November 1958 in Dunfermline) is a Scottish former footballer who played as a defender. Stark spent his whole career with Dundee United before retiring in 1984 due to injury. Stark, who played part-time for most of his time, considered quitting football in 1982 to join the police but remained at Tannadice to go full-time. Although he only scored 7 career goals, one of these was voted Britain's goal of the season in 1979 - a rocket from more than 40 yards out that almost burst Morton's net at Tannadice's allotment end.
