First appeared for Rovers at left half in October 1946.
He became a key member of a very strong half-back line along with Joe Wainwright and Michael O`Mahoney as Rovers had a very successful "Jubilee" season, celebrating 50 years of Birmingham Combination membership.
He fractured his jaw in the match against Worcester City when Rovers clinched the Birmingham Combination title, meaning he missed the Worcestershire Cup final triumph the following week and also the final of the Birmingham Senior Cup.
The fracture was not without complications, requiring an operation towards the end of June due to severe absences on the jaw bone.
