Career

McReddie started his career at local clubs, Lochee and Dundee Harp before moving to English club Stoke in 1889.[1] In his first season with Stoke they had an awful campaign finishing bottom of the Football League and also failed to gain re-election.[1] Stoke joined the Football Alliance and McReddie left the club and signed for Middlesbrough Ironopolis. He spent three seasons with the teesside club before he re-joined Stoke for the 1893–94 season where he played 30 league matches scoring 10 goals.[1] At the end of the season McReddie then moved on to Manchester City and Bolton Wanderers before returning north of the border to Celtic.[1]
