Børge Thorup

Thorup was born on 4 October 1943. His career spanned from 1962 to 1974 and he both started and ended his career, at a time when the Danish league was amateur-only, with Brønshøj Boldklub. Between 1966 and 1973 he took his game abroad and played professionally for Morton (two spells), Crystal Palace and Clydebank. He signed for Crystal Palace in March 1969, but having made only one appearance (as a substitute) in December, returned to Morton before the end of the season. Thorup was capped once for the Denmark national team, in 1965, in a match against Greece. Prior to that he played 11 matches for the U21-national team.
