Scotsman Creighton first played with Belfast club Distillery and was one of several Irish recruits City made in August 1910 in preparation for the 1910-1911 season. Unlike several of them he did establish himself as City’s first-choice left back. He was ever-present in his first season and a regular choice in his second season. He returned to Belfast in 1912 and joined Glenavon.
