Andy McGuigan

Andrew "Andy" McGuigan (24 February 1878 – 1948) was a Scottish professional footballer, described as "speedy and tricky".
He began his career with Hibernian, before signing with Liverpool in 1900. With Liverpool he won a First Division champions medal in 1900–01. He was sold on to Middlesbrough in December 1902, but then struggled with injury and wound down his career in brief spells at Southport Central, Accrington Stanley, Burslem Port Vale, Bristol City, Barrow, and Exeter City. He was later on the board of directors at Liverpool.

McGuigan started his career with Hibernian in the Scottish Football League First Division, following move from local side Newton Stewart. He made his debut against Partick Thistle on 3 September, and scored in the 4–1 win. He went on to score seven goals in 19 games in the 1898–99 season. He was the club's top scorer in the 1899–1900 campaign, hitting 12 goals in 19 games. During his time at Easter Road the club managed two top four finishes within a few points of second place, but some distance from the dominant Rangers.

He signed with Liverpool for the 1900–01 season, and scored five goals in 14 First Division games, as the "Reds" were crowned champions of English football for the first time. He then scored 9 goals in 18 league games in 1901–02; five of his goals came in one game at Anfield, in a 7–0 win over Stoke on 4 January 1902, the first time a Liverpool player accomplished such a feat in a competitive match. He scored 14 goals in 37 games in all competitions for Liverpool.

He was signed by Middlesbrough for a £300 fee in December 1902, but injury problems limited to just a single league appearance. He moved on to Southport Central, Accrington Stanley, Burslem Port Vale (without playing a game), Bristol City, Barrow, and Exeter City before returning to Liverpool as a scout.

He later became a club director at Liverpool, serving on the club's board when Liverpool won the championship two years in a row in 1921–22 and 1922–23.
