Jack Bell (footballer, born 1868)

John Watson Bell (6 October 1868 – 12 April 1956) was a Scottish football player and manager.

[6] As well as playing for one season alongside his younger brother Laurie, previously also a Dumbarton teammate, he also helped organise the Association Footballers' Union and later served as its president; his activities in this area caused Everton to end his contract, and he switched to non-league Tottenham for a short period before returning to Scotland with Celtic, though he later returned to Goodison Park.

His great-grandson Tom Smith was a Scottish international in rugby union.
