Tommy Law
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thomas "Tommy" Law (1 April 1908 – 1976) was a Scottish footballer. Playing at full-back, he spent his entire professional career at Chelsea.
He signed for Chelsea as a junior and made his debut for the club in 1926 against Bradford City. He soon established himself as Chelsea's first choice full-back, a position he would hold for most of his time at Stamford Bridge and was one of the less glamourous, though more reliable, members of a star-studded Chelsea squad which included his Scottish team mates, Hughie Gallacher, Alex Jackson and Andy Wilson. He made 319 appearances for Chelsea, scoring 18 goals, mainly from penalties.
Law won two caps for Scotland, both against England. He made his debut during Scotland's famous "Wembley Wizards" 5-1 win over England at Wembley in 1928. His final cap came two years later, though this time the Scots lost 2-5.
