Edward John "Ted" MacDougall (born 8 January 1947 in Inverness) is a retired Scottish footballer who is currently coaching the Atlanta Silverbacks in the United States.
MacDougall was a prolific goalscorer who played for eight teams, scoring 256 goals in 535 League appearances and winning seven full international caps for Scotland.
In an FA Cup tie for Bournemouth, in November 1971, he scored nine goals in an 11–0 win against Margate. He formed a successful striking partnership with Phil Boyer at four of his clubs.
MacDougall was raised in Inverness, moving to Widnes, Cheshire, with his parents shortly after his 12th birthday. He subsequently played in a local men's amateur league, and worked as a trainee compositor on a local newspaper.
MacDougall joined Liverpool as a trainee in 1964 and, on the day he turned 19, he was offered a professional contract at Anfield by manager Bill Shankly. However, MacDougall did not make it at Liverpool, where Ian St. John, Roger Hunt and Tony Hateley shared the goal-scoring duties, and he only made one first-team appearance, as a substitute in a UEFA Cup match.
In 1967 MacDougall left Liverpool to join Fourth Division York City for £5,000.
He quickly established himself as a prolific centre-forward. He scored on his debut against Workington, and went on to finish with 15 goals in his first season at Bootham Crescent.
