BARCLAY, William (1956)

Overview

Born on 11th July 1924, in Larkhall, he played for Larkhall Thistle before he moved to Motherwell in 1945. From there he was transferred to Bury in 1949. After seventeen English League games he returned to Scotland when Clyde signed him in November of the same year. He was a left winger who was always on the go, both on and off the park, as he joined yet another club when he signed for Third Lanark.
