The Melbourne Thistle Football Club was an Australian Anglo-Celtic backed association football (soccer) club based in Melbourne, presumably in the suburb of Albert Park.[1] The club was founded in 1912[2] and spent most of its existence in the first division league of the Victorian soccer system.[3][4] The club won seven titles within the state's tier one and tier two leagues, including the Dockerty Cup three times.[5][6][7]
Off the field, little is known about the club itself other than a handful of recorded home games were played at the former Middle Park ground in the neighboring suburb of Albert Park.[8][9] The club was dissolved after resigning from the Victorian First Division mid-season in July 1935.[10]
