Description

In two seasons before peacetime football was suspended due to World War One, he made 17 appearances for The Blues, but on the resumption of peacetime football he signed for Southern League Merthyr Town in 1919. A year later he joined Newport County playing in their inaugural Football League match in August 1920 against Reading, and making 36 appearances in their debut season before being ever present the following season.
