As a footballer, he was a "powerfully built full back."〔 He was born in Airdrie, North Lanarkshire, Scotland. ==Career== Scott first joined Airdrieonians in September 1890, playing as a full back. He "kicked the ball long and with purpose" and specialised in clearances off the line. On 19 March 1898, Scott captained the Scotland national football team against Wales at Fir Park, as part of the 1897–98 British Home Championship. Scott played full back and the end result was a 5–2 victory for Scotland.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://eu-football.info/_player.php?id=18864 )〕 Scott signed for Newcastle United for the 1900—01 season, having been brought in as cover for Dave Gardner.
