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 ability of keeping possession of the ball which was not a common practise in Victorian era football and as a result came in for some harsh treatment from opponents.[1] He served with Stoke for six seasons before leaving the Victoria Ground in 1894 after making 136 appearances scoring three goals.[1]

gollark: Hmm, maybe SPUDNET should do pings every 2500ms instead of 10000ms.
gollark: ...
gollark: Yes, it's right in the majority of your cases.
gollark: Go```javascriptconst WebSocket = require("ws")const msgpack = require("@msgpack/msgpack")require("dotenv").config()const ws = new WebSocket(process.argv[2] || "ws://localhost:6086/v4?enc=msgpack")const send = x => ws.send(msgpack.encode(x))ws.on("message", msg => { const data = msgpack.decode(msg) const mtype = data.type if (mtype === "ping") { console.log("ping", data.seq) send({ type: "pong", seq: data.seq }) } else if (mtype === "error") { console.warn(`${data.error} ${data.for}: ${data.detail}`) } else if (mtype === "ok") { console.log(`${data.for}:`, data.result) }})ws.on("open", () => { send({ type: "identify", key: process.env.CLIENT_KEY }) send({ type: "set_channels", channels: [ "ShutdownOS" ] })})```yourself.
