George Frederick Thomson (baptized 28 September 1853[1] – 15 May 1937) was a Welsh amateur footballer who helped found the Druids club and played for Wales in their first two international matches.
He moved across the border into Wales as a child when his family settled in the Ruabon area of Denbighshire, together with his older brother David.
[9] In 1877–78, Thomson, described as "a hard-working forward whose forte was running with the ball but (who) was none too accurate in his shooting",[2] helped Druids reach the first Welsh Cup final on 30 March 1878, losing 1–0 to local rivals Wrexham.
[1] Thomson retired from playing football in 1880, but remained active with Wynnstay cricket club.
[11] When the iron company went into liquidation in about 1887, Thomson left Ruabon to settle in Cheltenham where he died in 1937[2] aged 83.
