David Christie (January 1867 â 1945) was a Scottish footballer who played in the Football League for Stoke.
Christie joined Stoke from Scottish side Forfar Athletic in April 1889. He became a very useful addition to a struggling Stoke side and he helped them claim the Football Alliance title in 1890âÂÂ91. He had a useful skill of maintaining possession of the ball, which was uncommon in Victorian-era football, and as a result, opponents treated him harshly for it. He served with Stoke for six seasons before leaving the Victoria Ground in 1894 after making 136 appearances scoring three goals.
