Andrew Nesbit Wilson (14 February 1896 – 15 October 1973) was a Scottish international footballer who played for Middlesbrough, Heart of Midlothian, Dunfermline Athletic, Chelsea, Queens Park Rangers and Sporting Club Nîmois. ==Biography== Andy Wilson was born in Newmains, Lanarkshire and joined Middlesbrough from junior side Cambuslang Rangers in 1914 but his early career was interrupted by the First World War, during which he guested for Hearts. He wore a glove to mask his hand which had been shattered by a WW1 bullet. When the War ended, he played with Dunfermline Athletic when they were part of the rebel Central League, a body outside Scottish Football League jurisdiction. When this league was absorbed by the SFL in 1921, those players previously contracted to a Scottish or English league side were obliged to return to whichever side held their registration as part of the agreement. Thus Wilson returned to Middlesbrough in time for the 1921–22 season. After a season in which he was the League's top scorer, Wilson joined David Calderhead's Chelsea in November 1923 for £6,500, ending the 1923–24 season as both Middlesbrough and Chelsea's top scorer. He made 253 appearances for Chelsea and scored 52 goals in the next eight years before joining QPR in 1931. After a two-season sojourn in France, he would briefly manage Walsall before accepting a series of coaching positions, including at Chelsea and Gravesend and Northfleet. Andy Wilson was capped 12 times by Scotland between 1920 and 1923, averaging more than a goal per appearance. His younger son, Jimmy survived a tour as a tail-gunner in the far east during WW2. Jimmy played for Watford after the Second World War. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Andrew Wilson (footballer, born 1896)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
