Player Bio
William Russell Logan Bauld was born in Newcraighall (Edinburgh) on 24 January 1928. He died on 11 March 1977.
For such an iconic figure with his club, Heart of Midlothian, it is astonishing in hindsight that Willie Bauld won just three caps, all within a few weeks in the spring of 1950. Having joined Hearts in 1946 from junior team Newtongrange Star, he was farmed out for a season to Edinburgh City. He made an immediate impact at Tynecastle when he reached the first team, scoring a hat trick on his debut, and became a member of the ’Terrible Trio’ forward line of [Alfie] Conn, Bauld and [Jimmy] Wardhaugh. He went on to be a key figure in the club’s successes throughout the fifties: the Scottish Cup in 1956 the Scottish League Cup in 1955 and 1959 and the Scottish League in 1958 and 1960. He retired in 1962.
