Moving from
Rangers to
Bradford City in September 1910, Taylor signed for
Burnley in November 1911. With Bradford he won the
1911 FA Cup Final, and with Burnley he won the
1914 FA Cup Final and the
1920–21 Football League title. He was known for his pace. He only featured for
Celtic in five league matches but could be considered to have played an important part in their
1918–19 Scottish Football League title win, as in his debut on 1 January 1919 the
Hoops held his old club Rangers to a 1–1 draw at
Ibrox thanks to what was described in the press as "magnificent rearguard tactics", going on to win the championship from the same rivals by one point. At the end of that season, he suffered from serious heart trouble which put his career and health at risk, but was later able to continue with Burnley. He played in two
Home Scots v Anglo-Scots international trials just prior to the war, but never gained a full
cap for
Scotland. He later moved back to Scotland to manage
St Johnstone and
Dunfermline Athletic, before returning to England to manage
Carlisle United. ==See also==
