    Jimmy Stott was only at Liverpool for one season (1893-94), which was also the club's first in the Football League.

    He distinguished himself by being the team’s top scorer that year, netting 14 times in just 17 appearances as the club were promoted to the top division at the first time of asking.

    Stott played in 12 of the first 14 league games but only made a further three appearances during the second half of the campaign, although he did also feature in two FA Cup ties.

    The highlight of his single season came with a hat-trick in the 6-0 trouncing of Middlesbrough Ironopolis at Anfield in October 1893. He also scored twice in games against Small Heath, Rotherham County and Northwich Victoria.
