Career

Douglas began his career with Northern League side Crook Town.[2] Following abortive spells at Football League sides Newcastle United and Crystal Palace, he resumed his career with stints at North Eastern League sides West Stanley and Washington Colliery.[2] Douglas was handed another chance at league football with Division Three South side Brentford in 1925 and went on to become a regular pick on the wing, making 109 appearances and scoring 21 goals in a four-season spell.[3] Douglas' performances won him the attention of Division Two side Reading and he moved to Elm Park in an exchange deal for Bill Lane in 1929.[2] He made only a handful of appearances for the Royals and saw his career out with spells at Bristol Rovers and Guildford City.[2]
