James was an inside-forward who played for Liverpool shortly before the First World War. He made his debut on the opening day of the 1909-10 season and only missed one match as the club finished runners-up to First Division champions Aston Villa. James was second-highest scorer with 18 league goals behind the prolific Jack Parkinson (30). That debut season was easily James's best in a Liverpool shirt. He was only called on a further 25 times over the next four seasons and made the last of his 63 league and FA Cup appearances for the club in a 1-4 defeat at Sheffield Wednesday on October 4, 1913.
