At Sunderland

He began his professional career, by now playing as a goalkeeper, with Sunderland in May 1923. His debut came on 29 September 1923 in a 5–2 victory over Manchester City . [ 2 ] Sunderland finished the season in third place in the First Division table. In the following season, McInroy missed only one game and his agility and intelligent football mind made him a first team regular, as he went on to make over 200 appearances for Sunderland over six years. He made his solitary England appearance at Anfield on 20 October 1926 in a 3–3 draw with Northern Ireland . [ 3 ] His Sunderland teammate Warney Cresswell played in front of him at right back. In October 1929 he was surprisingly sold for £2,750 [ 1 ] to arch-rivals Newcastle United .Wikipedia
