Harry Wilson was a Scottish footballer who played for Partick Thistle, mainly as a left half.[1] He featured prominently for the Jags for six seasons after joining in 1903,[2] making 161 appearances in all competitions[3] including the Glasgow Merchants Charity Cup final of 1905,[4] before joining Vale of Leven in 1909. Some sources suggest he was selected for the Scottish Football League XI,[5] but the player involved was Robert Wilson who joined Partick almost at the same time Harry departed.[1]
