Andrew Donaldson (footballer, born 1884)

Andrew Donaldson (born 5 June 1884) was a Scottish footballer who played as an inside left for clubs including Motherwell,[1] Airdrieonians (three spells, making 337 Scottish Football League and Scottish Cup appearances in total and scoring 95 goals),[2] Celtic[3] and Third Lanark. In January 1915 he scored four goals for Airdrie in a 5–0 league victory over Rangers,[4][5] albeit this was during World War I when the SFL continued but wartime commitments and restrictions often affected the matches. Donaldson played regularly in the top division of Scottish football for 14 seasons, but never won a major trophy nor took part in a final[2] – however, Airdrie won the Lanarkshire Cup six times while he was with the club, and he is known to have been involved in the 1914 victory[6] but likely to have played in most if not all of the other finals.
