Davy Christie


David "Davy" Christie was a Scottish footballer who played in the Football League for Stoke.

Career

Christie joined Stoke from Scottish side Forfar Athletic in April 1889. He became a very useful addition to a struggling Stoke side and he helped them claim the Football Alliance title in 1890–91. He had a useful ability of keeping possession of the ball which was not a common practise in Victorian era football and as a result came in for some harsh treatment from opponents. He served with Stoke for six seasons before leaving the Victoria Ground in 1894 after making 136 appearances scoring three goals.
