The most expensive footballer in the world at the time played for Scottish league v English league at Stamford Bridge in a 6-2 win, he scored the third goal of the 6

He signed for the mighty Boro in February 1905, scoring the only goal of the game, penalty away to Sheff Utd, on his debut, our 1st league away win since moving to Ayresome Park

He won 3 England caps during his career, though sadly none while at the mighty Boro
