Charles McCormack (29 April 1895 – 1975) was a Scottish footballer who played as a right back, mainly for Third Lanark and Hamilton Academical, as well as a short spell at Ayr United before retiring.[1]
He made more than 350 appearances in the Scottish Football League's top division and the Scottish Cup across 14 seasons[2] but won no major trophies, the closest he got being a defeat to Rangers in the Glasgow Cup final in 1923.[3] He was involved in a memorable match while playing for Hamilton against Rangers in 1927: required to take over as goalkeeper when Alex Binnie suffered a broken leg, his team were awarded a penalty which he scored, and the opposition then missed a penalty of their own. Rangers eventually equalised but McCormack made several saves and Accies held out for a draw.[4] [1]
McCormack toured North America in the summer of 1921 with 'Scotland' (in reality, Third Lanark with a number of capable guest players);[5] [6] [7] no other representative honours came his way.
