James McEwan Kirk (4 November 1913 – 1963) was a Scottish footballer who played for Clyde as a right back.[1][2] He won the Scottish Cup with the club in 1939[3] after suffering disappointment when the team fell at the semi-final stage in both 1936 and 1937.[4] In 2018, Kirk's winner's medal reached a price of £1,600 at auction.[5]
His career was curtailed by World War II, during which he was selected for Scotland in an unofficial international against a League of Ireland XI in April 1940.[6]
