Profile
John Beckram was born in Sunderland in 1881, and played for Sheffield United before becoming part of the first-ever side to play a competitive fixture for Bradford City.
Beckram has the distinction of owning Heritage Number #1, on account of being the first player listed in the team sheet against Grimsby Town in September 1903 alphabetically.
He was released by the club in the summer of 1905, after failing to make an appearance for City in the club’s second season of 1904-05.
