href="/wiki/Hughie_Ferguson" title="Hughie Ferguson">Hughie Ferguson</a></b> (2 March 1895 – 8 January 1930) was a professional <a href="/wiki/Association_football" title="Association football">footballer</a>. He was one of Scotland's most sought-after young players before signing for <a href="/wiki/Motherwell_F.C." title="Motherwell F.C.">Motherwell F.C.</a> to begin his professional career. He played as a <a href="/wiki/Forward_(association_football)#Centre_forward" title="Forward (association football)">centre forward</a> and finished as the top goalscorer in the <a href="/wiki/Scottish_Football_League" title="Scottish Football League">Scottish Football League</a> on three occasions. His 284 league goals remains a <a href="/wiki/List_of_Motherwell_F.C._records_and_statistics" title="List of Motherwell F.C. records and statistics">club record</a> and, by 1925, he was the highest-scoring player in the history of the Scottish League. In 1925, Ferguson moved to <a href="/wiki/Cardiff_City_F.C." title="Cardiff City F.C.">Cardiff City F.C.</a>; he was the club's top goalscorer for four consecutive seasons. He scored the winning goal in the <a href="/wiki/1927_FA_Cup_final" title="1927 FA Cup final">1927 FA Cup final</a> and scored in the <a href="/wiki/1927_FA_Charity_Shield" title="1927 FA Charity Shield">1927 FA Charity Shield</a>. Ferguson returned to Scotland with <a href="/wiki/Dundee_F.C." title="Dundee F.C.">Dundee F.C.</a> in 1929, but struggled to reproduce his goalscoring form. Six months after his arrival, he lost his place in the team and committed suicide. He is one of only seven men in the history of the English and Scottish Football Leagues to have scored 350 league goals.
