Personal life

Born in Ecclesfield, Sheffield, Blair is the son of former Scottish international Jimmy Blair, Sr. and brother of Jimmy Blair, Jr..

Career

Blair started out at Blackpool, signing for the club in May 1939. However the outbreak of the Second World War soon after meant he never featured for the club in the Football League. He played in wartime fixtures for the club during the 1939–40 season but was conscripted and left the club. While undergoing his army training, Blair featured in eight wartime fixtures for Aldershot, scoring four times. He later played in one fixture for Leeds United on 25 August 1945 against Chesterfield.

Following the return of league football, Blair joined Cardiff City, where his father Jimmy had played during the 1920s, in August 1947. He became a vital part of the Bluebirds side in the following years and helped them to win promotion to the First Division during the 1951–52 season. Blair scored thirty goals during his career at Cardiff, all scored in league competition. He left Ninian Park in 1954 to sign for Hereford United where he finished his career. He made 113 appearances for Hereford and scored 31 goals for the Edgar Street club.
