Born in Wallsend, Tyne and Wear, England, but brought up in the United States, Stubbins first played for Newcastle United in 1937, appearing in official games 30 times and scoring six goals for the team. In wartime games (classified as friendlies) he scored 188 goals in just 231 appearances.

In 1946 he was signed by Liverpool for a then club record of £12,500. Stubbins had also been approached by Liverpool's closest rivals, Everton, and he settled the decision with a toss of the coin. The coin should have been framed by manager George Kay as he made an immediate impact at the club, making his debut on the 14 September 1946 in a league match at Burnden Park he scored an 82nd minute goal as the Reds left it late to claim all the spoils in a 3-1 victory over Bolton wanderers.

His move to Liverpool gained him most of his fame and success; Stubbins scored 28 goals (24 league goals) in the 1946-7 season (making him joint top scorer with Jack Balmer) helping Liverpool to win the League Championship, the first time in 24 years.

Stubbins also scored 24 goals the following season. Although a contractual dispute in the 1948-9 season limited his appearances for the Merseyside club, he then helped Liverpool reach the 1950 FA Cup final, the first time Liverpool had ever appeared at Wembley, unfortunately, they lost to Arsenal by 2 goals to nil.

Injuries forced him to retire in 1953, having scored 83 goals in 178 appearances 1 every 2.1 games. For a player with such an impressive goal ratio it's astonishing that was constantly overlooked by Walter Winterbottom he only played for England once and that was in an unofficial 'victory' international against Wales in 1945, a game England lost 1-0.

Following his retirement, Stubbins entered a full-time career in sports journalism, although he briefly coached an American semi-professional side, the New York Americans in 1960.
