James Dunn (25 November 1900 – 20 August 1963) was a Scottish international footballer, most famous for being part of the 1928 Wembley Wizards team.
Dunn, born in Glasgow and nicknamed "ginger" due to his hair,[4] started his senior career in 1920 when Hibernian signed him from his local Junior side St Anthony's.
[1] After scoring 49 goals in 155 matches for Everton,[1] he left Goodison Park in 1935 for Exeter City, becoming the Grecians record signing in the process.
The entire Scotland forward-line measured 5 foot 7 or less and it was widely expected that the bigger, stronger English side would overpower their Scottish opponents.
[2] His son, Jimmy Jr, would later also find fame on the football field, participating in Wolverhampton Wanderers' victorious 1949 FA Cup team.
