Jimmy Galt

James "Jimmy" Hill Galt (born 11 August 1885; died 17 November 1935) was a Scottish professional footballer, who played as a left half for Rangers and Everton.

Galt played with Rangers for eight years between 1906 and 1914. He made 206 appearances and scored five goals for the club. During his time at Ibrox he won three Scottish league championships, two Glasgow Cups and three Charity Cups. He also won the Scottish National Exhibition Tournament in 1908.

Galt swapped Glasgow for Merseyside in 1914 and joined Everton. He made thirty-six appearances for the Toffees and scored four goals. But left after only one season, despite captaining them to the Old First Division title, to join Third Lanark.

Galt won his two Scotland caps in May 1908. He scored on his second appearance, against Ireland on 14 May. Galt also played and scored in one unofficial wartime international, against England on 13 May 1916.

Galt served with Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders during the First World War as a Second Lieutenant. Galt was wounded in action, suffering severe shell-shock, which meant that he did not resume his football career after the war ended. After retiring from football he ran a series of Billiard Halls with ex-Rangers teammate Jimmy Gordon.
