William McCaw "Red" Ballantyne (15 November 1901 – 7 August 1944) was a Scottish association football inside right who played in Scotland, the United States, and Canada.
[3] After two seasons with Clyde, Ballantyne returned to the United States to sign with the New Bedford Whalers.
[4] In 1928, he began the season with the Whalers, but the onset of the soccer wars between the league and the United States Football Association brought considerable turmoil to the professional scene.
However, Ballantyne refused to make the move back to the ASL and joined the New York Giants in the ESL.
[6] He then signed with the New York Americans and later played for Montréal Carsteel and then the Kearny Scots-Americans in the second ASL after the original league collapsed in 1933.
