Final game for Gresley Rovers first team

He also played in the next match against Loughborough Brush in a Coalville Charity Cup game. This is classed as a friendly.

Ken, known to his friends as Bill, was transferred to Blacpool for £100 in January 1939. He had been approached by Wolves, Birmingham, Chelsea, and Aston Villa but chose Blackpool.
Ken was 6ft tall and his playing weight was 12st 10lbs.

During the War years 1939-1945 records are not reliable as many games and players were not published in the local press.
Also, players were called up and played as and when they were available.
These figures are based on the most reliable available.
