Career

Early years A wing half, Sneddon began his career in junior football with Wishaw Juniors and Rutherglen Glencairn. He began his senior career with Scottish League Second Division club Falkirk in December 1935 and made 44 appearances and scored eight goals before departing in June 1937. He quickly established himself in the side and made 44 appearances during the 1937–38 season. Sneddon found game-time harder to come by during the 1938–39 season and made 27 appearances, scoring two goals. The outbreak of the Second World War two months later put Sneddon's professional career on hold, though he continued to represent the Swans during the war. After the cessation of hostilities in 1945, Sneddon made two competitive appearances before leaving in November 1946. He returned again during the 1942–43 season.
