Description

Shieldmuir, Lanarkshire born right or left half Tommy McKenzie began his football career with Cambuslang Rangers from where he signed for Scottish First Division club Motherwell in 1931. In his first season with the club, 1931-32, they were Scottish League champions, but McKenzie was a reserve and only made one first team appearance in the successful campaign. His importance grew from then on, and he played in two of the club’s Scottish Cup Finals in the era, both of which were lost (in 1933 to Celtic and in 1939 to Clyde).

He played twice for the Scottish Football League XI in 1934 and 1937, In May and June 1939, McKenziet toured North America with a Scottish Football Association XI but never received a full cap for Scotland. After his playing career ended in 1942 he was employed as a coach at Motherwell for several years until around 1969, as was his younger brother Willie. Their nephews Billy and Sammy Reid were both footballers who also played for Motherwell.
