David Baird (4 March 1869 – 19 March 1946) was a Scottish footballer who played for Heart of Midlothian, Motherwell and Scotland.[3][4] Baird won the Scottish Cup three times with Hearts, playing in three different positions in each of the finals (1891, 1896 and 1901), though he was most commonly deployed as an outside forward.[5] After retiring as a player in 1904, Baird was a director of Hearts between 1926 and 1936.[3]
