John Chalmers Crawford (11 October 1902 – 1973) was a Scottish footballer who played as a goalkeeper. After starting off at Alloa Athletic,[2] his most prominent spell was at Blackburn Rovers, where he won the FA Cup in 1928.[1][3][4] He took part in what proved to be the last Home Scots v Anglo-Scots international trial match in the same year,[5] but this did not lead to a full cap for Scotland. He had to retire due to injury a short time after returning north on loan with East Stirlingshire.[1]
