Grantchester, Cambridgeshire born goalkeeper Archie Ling began his football career with Cambridge Swifts in 1900 and Albert Institute of Cambridge in 1901 before signing for Second Division Leicester Fosse in June 1902, making his Football League debut against Small Heath the same September. He soon established himself as principal The Fossils’ incumbent for the next two seasons, but lost his place to Walter Smith at the start of the 1904-05 campaign, and after only 2 further appearances, and joined Southern League Swindon Town in May 1905 after 66 appearances for Leicester.
