List of Scotland international footballers (4–9 caps)

From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

The Scotland players (in blue) come onto the pitch for a friendly against Brazil in 2011

The Scotland national football team is the joint-oldest international football team, having played in the first official international match, a goalless draw on 30 November 1872 against England.[1] Since then, the team has established a long-standing rivalry with England, particularly in the annual British Home Championship, which Scotland won 24 times outright and shared a further 17 times.[2] The team has enjoyed less success in continental and global competition. Even though Scotland has participated in eight FIFA World Cup and three UEFA European Championship final tournaments,[3] the team has never progressed beyond the first round of any major tournament.[3][4]

Kenny Dalglish, the only man to have won more than 100 caps for Scotland, was the only Scottish player named in the FIFA 100.[5] Denis Law, who shares with Dalglish the record for the most goals scored for the national team, is the only Scottish player to have won the European Footballer of the Year award.[6] The Scottish Football Association maintains a roll of honour for players who have won at least 50 caps.[7] This distinction was launched in March 1998, when 11 players had already achieved that mark.[7]

This list includes all players with between 4 and 9 appearances for the national team.

  1. ^ The Scottish FA profile attributes an appearance by Andy Beattie on 8 October 1938 to Bobby Beattie.
  2. ^ The Scottish FA website merges the statistics of James Connor (active in the 1880s) and Jimmy Connor (active in the 1930s) into a single profile.
  3. ^ The Scottish FA website merges the statistics of John Hunter (born 1878) and John Hunter (active in the 1870s) into a single profile.
  4. ^ There is some uncertainty over the sixth Scotland goal in a 7–3 win over Ireland in 1929: both Hughie Gallacher, who had already scored four times, and Alex James went for the ball at the same point. Correspondence between Queen of the South FC and the Scottish Football Museum in 2016 favoured Gallacher, stating "Hughie himself was insistent that the goal was his, claiming that as he and Alex James (who was a good friend of his) were of a similar build (and of course in 1929 there were no numbers on the jerseys), it was easy for pressmen to make a mistake". James remains credited with the goal in some sources, including the Scottish Football Association website profiles, while the Scottish Football Hall of Fame include the contradictory statement that Gallacher's total was 23 goals but that he scored a record five in a match against Ireland.
  5. ^ The Scottish FA website attributes the 1885 appearance by Hugh Wilson to Leitch Keir.
  6. ^ Some sources attribute Kelly's first cap and goal in 1886 to John Lambie who had to withdraw from the team at short notice but was still included in match reports.

  11. ^ The Scottish FA profile attributes an appearance made by Tommy McLean on 16 October 1968 to George McLean.
  12. ^ The Scottish FA website attributes the 1891 appearance by John McPherson (born 1867) to John McPherson (born 1868). Most sources credit a goal in the Ireland v Scotland fixture of 1890 to John McPherson (born 1868, but contemporary reports credit this to Gilbert Rankin (who also scored two other goals in the match).
  13. ^ The Scottish Football Association archive Archived 27 September 2007 at the Wayback Machine credits the third Scotland goal in the 9–3 match to Davie Wilson, and footage from the match (Footage #1 – 2:05 and Footage #2 – 1:29) appears to confirm this; most sources (and the contemporary commentary on the footage) credit the goal to Pat Quinn.
