Born in
Peterhead and raised in
West Lothian, Marshall began his senior career with
Partick Thistle, signing for
Bradford City in June 1914. He made 33
Football League appearances for the
West Yorkshire club either side of
World War I, scoring 12 goals; he also played in four
FA Cup matches, without scoring. After turning out for Partick and
Ayr United as a guest player (the
Scottish Football League continued during the conflict), Marshall returned to Bradford but departed
Valley Parade in September 1920 to join
Oldham Athletic. ==Sources==
