An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Thomas Wylie (born 14 March 1896) was a professional footballer who played for Queen of the South, Blackburn Rovers and Swindon Town. A left back from Darvel in Ayrshire, Wylie joined Queens from Galston in August 1920 (neither were Scottish Football League members at that time) and made nine appearances and scored three goals for the club before he joined Blackburn Rovers in February 1921. He was the last of three players to make such a move in a short time frame, after Jimmy McKinnell and Willie McCall. This (along with the transfer of Ian Dickson to Aston Villa) helped fund the Dumfries club's purchase of Palmerston Park.
