John Thompson Leckie (3 March 1906 — 1977) was a Scottish footballer who played as a goalkeeper.

Career

Leckie played for Alva Albion, Alloa Athletic, St Johnstone, Raith Rovers and Bray Unknowns before moving down to England to sign with Port Vale in March 1932.[1] He picked up an injury in only his second game in 1931–32 and was sidelined until the start of his second season at The Old Recreation Ground.[1] During that season he had a period from November 1932 to February 1933 as second-choice keeper behind previous favourite Ben Davies, though in March he was injured once more, and Leckie played 22 games.[1] He left on a free transfer by May 1933. He moved on to Stockport County in 1933–34, dropping down to the Third Division North from the Second Division. He was then Cardiff City's first-team goalkeeper in 1934–35, as the Welsh club struggled near the bottom of the Third Division South. He later turned out for Walsall and Carlisle United.
