Gordon Taylor Logan (born 3 October 1949) is a Scottish born former footballer who played at right-back for Port Vale and Kettering Town. He helped Port Vale to win promotion out of the Fourth Division in 1969–70.
Playing career
Logan graduated through the Port Vale juniors to sign professional forms with the club in March 1967.[1] He played seven Fourth Division games towards the end of the 1966–67 season.[1] He played 17 matches in the 1967–68 campaign, though manager Stanley Matthews came into trouble when it was revealed that Logan had been paid illegal bonuses.[1] He featured just four times in the 1968–69 season, as he fell out of favour under new boss Gordon Lee.[1] Logan played nine league and five FA Cup games in the 1969–70 promotion campaign, and scored his first senior goal on 13 September, in a 3–2 win over Oldham Athletic at Boundary Park.[1] He was given a free transfer to Southern League side Kettering Town in May 1970.[1]
