James Sloan McInnes (17 February 1912 – 5 May 1965) was a Scottish footballer who played as a wing half for Liverpool in the English Football League.
Born in Ayrshire, McInnes started his senior career at Third Lanark, winning the 1934–35 Scottish Division Two title and playing on the losing side in the 1936 Scottish Cup Final[1] before he moved to England to play for Liverpool in March 1938.
McInnes killed himself at Liverpool's home ground, Anfield, in 1965.
He had become overwhelmed at the size of the job that he faced as the club grew in stature, and hanged himself from a beam at the rear of the Spion Kop.
