James Morton "Bud" Maxwell (15 January 1913 – 22 April 1990) was a Scottish footballer who played as a centre forward for Kilmarnock and Preston North End. Maxwell was a prolific goalscorer, becoming Kilmarnock's second best ever goalscorer in just four seasons, with 103 goals in 126 League games and 19 goals in 21 Cup games. When only 18, he played in the 1932 Scottish Cup Final against Rangers. The first game was drawn, with Maxwell scoring the only goal for Kilmarnock. He also played in the replay, which Kilmarnock lost. Maxwell signed for Preston North End in 1934 and maintained an impressive strike rate, scoring 60 goals in 129 league matches and finishing top goalscorer in 1934–35 with 26 goals, and 1935–36 with 19.〔(Preston North End : Top Seasonal Scorers )〕 Maxwell also played in the victorious Preston team at the 1938 FA Cup Final. However, he increasingly suffered knee injuries and was sold to Barnsley in 1939 before finally returning to Kilmarnock, where he scored his 124th club goal on his final appearance for the club on March 16, 1940. He served with the Royal Navy throughout WW2 in the North Atlantic on submarine hunting/convoy escort duty. He played as a guest for Greenock Morton in the Scottish Southern League a number of times while on leave from the navy. ==References== 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「Bud Maxwell」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
