The former Westcott School pupil, signed in 1919, finished his career in north Kent where he took employment in a paper mill as an electrician. |

Fred FORD
Fred had the unenviable task of following 'double' winning manager Danny Williams into the County Ground hot seat. But he led them to a then highest fifth placed finish in the second tier and Anglo-Italian success. |

Sammy LAMB
Town sold Sammy to Millwall in April 1913 for £325 - three times the fee they paid for him. He continued playing until the early 1920's and later became a coalman in north London. |
