Retired from football
with cancer of the face!
By vocation an artist, designer and draughtsman, and in 1911 underwent a
severe operation. Nonetheless, although too old for military
service, he served in Rouen, France, with the YMCA during the First World
War. In the twenties, in poor health, he fell on hard times, and so
strained were his circumstances that, in 1923, Aston Villa set up a fund
to help him. -
