'''John Hogg''' (27 May 1881 – 2 August 1944) was an English [footballer](/source/association_football) who played as a [half-back](/source/Wing_half) for various clubs in the 1900s.

==Football career==
Hogg was born in [Sunderland](/source/Sunderland) and joined his elder brother [Billy](/source/Billy_Hogg) as a trainee at [Sunderland](/source/Sunderland_A.F.C.) in 1900. Hogg failed to make the grade at [Roker Park](/source/Roker_Park) and moved to [Morpeth Harriers](/source/Morpeth_Harriers_F.C.) of the [Northern Alliance](/source/Northern_Football_Alliance) for two seasons.

In May 1903, Hogg joined [Sheffield United](/source/Sheffield_United_F.C.) in the [Football League First Division](/source/Football_League_First_Division), where he made three appearances at [right-half](/source/right-half) in [the 1903–04 season](/source/1903%E2%80%9304_in_English_football). He then moved to the [south coast](/source/South_coast_of_England) to join [Southern League](/source/Southern_Football_League) [Southampton](/source/Southampton_F.C.) in the summer of 1905.

He made his debut for the "Saints" on 7 October 1905, in a 2–1 victory at home to [Watford](/source/Watford_F.C.). Although he was often played at [centre-half](/source/centre-half), he was more at home at right-half; he was primarily a "''destructive''" rather than "''constructive''" player who "''appeared to be rather slow (although) he had an easy stride''" and was "''reliable and a great trier''" but "''tended to be over-awed in important matches"''.<ref name = "ABC">{{cite book | title=The Alphabet of the Saints|last= Holley |first= Duncan |last2= Chalk|first2= Gary| publisher= ACL & Polar Publishing | year=1992| isbn=0-9514862-3-3|page=169}}</ref> For [the 1905–06 season](/source/Southern_Football_League_1905-06), he became a regular in defence alongside [England](/source/England_national_football_team) internationals [Bert Lee](/source/Bert_Lee_(footballer)) and [Kelly Houlker](/source/Kelly_Houlker). In his first season at [The Dell](/source/The_Dell_(Southampton)), Hogg made 24 league and 5 FA Cup appearances, scoring once, as Southampton finished as runners-up in the League.<ref>{{cite book | title=Saints – A complete record|last= Chalk|first= Gary|last2=Holley|first2= Duncan | publisher= Breedon Books| year=1987| isbn= 0-907969-22-4|pages=38–39}}</ref>

Hogg was the regular right-half for the start of [the 1906–07 season](/source/Southern_Football_League_1906-07) before he had a bad game in an [FA Cup](/source/FA_Cup) [Second round](/source/FA_Cup_1906%E2%80%9307) replay at [The Wednesday](/source/Sheffield_Wednesday) on 7 February 1907. In this match, Hogg was played out of position at [right-back](/source/right-back) but repeatedly fluffed his clearances; his performance caused confusion in his own defence, allowing The Wednesday to win 3–1<ref>{{cite book | title=Saints – A complete record|pages=40–41}}</ref> and go on to claim the cup in [the Final](/source/1907_FA_Cup_Final) the following April. Hogg never appeared again in a Saints shirt, with [John Robertson](/source/John_Nicol_Robertson) taking over from him.

At the end of the season, Hogg was released and returned to his native [north east](/source/North_East_England) where he joined [West Stanley](/source/West_Stanley_F.C.), playing in the [North Eastern League](/source/North_Eastern_League).

==Family==
His brother, [Billy](/source/Billy_Hogg), played at [outside right](/source/outside_right), winning [the Football League](/source/the_Football_League) championship with [Sunderland](/source/Sunderland_A.F.C.) in [1901–02](/source/1901%E2%80%9302_in_English_football), before moving to Scotland where he won the [Scottish League](/source/Scottish_Football_League) title three times with [Rangers](/source/Rangers_F.C.). He also made three appearances for [England](/source/England_national_football_team) in 1902.
