William Stewart Chalmers (5 March 1907 – 13 November 1989) was a Scottish amateur football inside right who played for Queens Park, Heart of Midlothian, Manchester United, Dunfermline Athletic and the Scotland national team. [1]
Chalmers was born and grew up in the southern Glasgow suburb of Mount Florida, in the vicinity of Hampden Park. [3] He joined local side Queen's Park and played five seasons with them while he completed his studies. [2] He turned professional in 1929, when he joined Edinburgh side Heart of Midlothian. [4] He moved to Manchester United in September 1932 and then returned to Scotland with Dunfermline Athletic in 1934, where he finished his playing career. [5] [6]
Chalmers played once for the Scotland national football team, against Ireland at Windsor Park in front of 30,000 people. [7] The game ended 7–3 to Scotland. [8] He was one of the last players to be capped by the full national side while still an amateur.
Chalmers was a trained chartered accountant and continued in this profession after his playing retirement. [3]
The source attributes seven appearances, 1 goal by Stewart Chalmers in the 1924-25 Scottish Division One season to Billy Chalmers, who played in the same position, but had moved from Queen's Park to Rangers in May 1924.
