Jim Begg

Jim Begg is a Scottish former professional footballer who played primarily as a left-back. He is best known for his time with Liverpool Football Club during the late 1980s.

Begg began his career with junior club East Kilbride Thistle before moving to Hibernian in 1982. He then signed for Liverpool in 1985. He was a member of the Liverpool team that won the First Division title in 1987–88, playing a significant role until a serious knee injury curtailed his career.
