William Omand (14 September 1931 – 2005), known as Junior Omand, was Scottish amateur footballer who made over 250 appearances in the Scottish League for Queen's Park as an outside left.[2] [3] He later became president of the club.[4] Omand represented Scotland at amateur level and played for touring team Middlesex Wanderers.[5] As a player, he was described as "something of a reversion to the traditional Scottish inside forward, hunched over the ball and driving towards the opposition goal".
Omand attended Queen's Park Secondary School.
