Career
Christie joined Stoke from Scottish side Forfar Athletic in April 1889.[1] He became a very useful addition to a struggling Stoke side and he helped them claim the Football Alliance title in 1890–91.[1] 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.[1] He served with Stoke for six seasons before leaving the Victoria Ground in 1894 after making 136 appearances scoring three goals.[1]
