Career & Clubs
A winger, Melrose started his playing career for Rangers. His only appearance for the Gers was in the Scottish League Cup semi-final in September 1957, scoring twice in a 4–0 win over Brechin City. Melrose made his name at Dunfermline Athletic after arriving on a free transfer in May 1958. A stalwart of Jock Stein's side of the early 1960s, he made 271 appearances and scored 106 goals, including 6 goals, (a joint club record shared with Charlie Dickson) in a game against Partick Thistle in April 1959. He left East End Park in October 1965 and signed for Aberdeen for a fee of £10,000. He was captain of the Dons from 1966 to 1968.
In 1969, Melrose left Pittodrie and became player-manager of Berwick Rangers. In 1975, he returned to Dunfermline as manager and guided them to promotion to Scottish League Division One in May 1979.
