He broke into the Sunderland team from October 1932 and was an ever present for two successive seasons in 1934-35 and 1935-36 as Sunderland first finished runners-up in the League Championship and then won the title in 1936. He also played in their 2-1 Charity Shield victory over Arsenal at Roker Park that October.
In 1937 he was a member of Sunderland’s FA Cup winning team, beating Preston North End 3-1 at Wembley. He was then awarded his first and only international cap for Scotland against Czechoslovakia in a 3-1 at Stadion Sparta-Letna, Prague on 15th May 1937. He was also a part of the Sunderland team that lost the 1938 FA Cup semi final by 3 goals to 1 to Huddersfield Town at Ewood Park, Blackburn. By the time the Second World War arrived, which forced his retirement, he had scored 8 goals in 263 appearances for The Wearsiders.
