James McBride (born December 30 1873) was a footballer for Liverpool during the latter half of the 19th century.
Life and playing career
Born in Renton, Dumbartonshire, Scotland, McBride played for Renton wanderers and Renton F.C before being signed by Liverpool managers John McKenna & W. E. Barclay in 1892. McBride made his debut in Liverpool's first ever fixture a friendly against Rotherham Town on September 1 1892, which Liverpool won 7-1, he also played in their first ever competitive match a Lancashire League fixture against Higher Walton 2 days later, a game in which he scored his first goal and which Liverpool, again, won this time 8-0.
McBride was a regular during Liverpool's unbeaten debut season in the Football League Second Division missing just 4 of the 28 games, a season that saw the Anfield club gain promotion to the top flight of English football replacing Newton Heath (who became Man United) whom they beat 2-0 in the test match, the equivalent of today's play-off's. He only played 5 more times for the Anfield club during their relegation back down to Division 2.
