Left-back who appeared in Leeds' first full league game and
became a regular over the next couple of years. He had made his
reputation in Scotland with Hearts and appeared in a military
international during World War 1 but was never capped for the full
national side. He moved on to Bradford in 1924, but with age
catching up with him he picked up an injury in 1926 that ended his
professional career. In business he ran a successful sports
supplies operation (see the advertisement from a 1960s programme
above) that provided the kit for Leeds for some years, and he
remained in West Yorkshire up to his death in spring 1967.
