Biography

McInally was signed by Celtic from Wishaw Juniors in April 1934, and he spent several seasons at Parkhead, making around a dozen competitive appearances, before being allowed to join up at Gayfield in early September 1937. He instantly became a hugely important player in our forward line, barely missing a game during the 1937-38 and 1938-39 seasons, and featuring in the first half of the following campaign before joining Motherwell in January 1940, in order to play closer to him during wartime.

The following year McInally joined the RAF as a Physical Training instructor and he played for the RAF team, as well as featuring for Albion Rovers, Leicester City and Clachnacuddin during WW2 when stationed in different parts of the country. He returned to Gayfield for a spell early on in the 1946-47 season before going on to play for Queen of the South, Cowdenbeath, Ballymena, Albion Rovers and Wigtown and Bladnoch.
