Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox football biography George Stobbart (9 January 1921, in Morpeth, Northumberland – 1995) was an English footballer who played for Middlesbrough, Newcastle United, Luton Town, Millwall and Brentford during his career. As of October 2015 he is Brentford's quickest-ever goalscorer, having netted after just ten seconds of a Division Three (South) match versus Aldershot in November 1954.[1]

Playing career

Stobbart started his career at Netherfield before moving to Middlesbrough during the Second World War.[2] During the war, he was Middlesbrough's top goalscorer, scoring 125 goals in 168 games.[3] After the war, he failed to maintain his place and in 1946 moved to Newcastle United for £4,650,[4] having failed to make a competitive appearance for Middlesbrough,[5] though he did make two appearances in the expanded 1945–46 FA Cup.[6]

At Newcastle, he made an instant impact, scoring twice on his debut in their 3–1 home victory over Coventry City, but lost his place a few months later.[4] He would eventually go on to score 21 goals in 66 league appearances playing up front and on the right wing.[7]

He stayed at Newcastle for three seasons before moving on to Luton Town, where he would make the more appearances than any of his other clubs over the next three years.[7] Again, he moved on, this time to Millwall and two seasons later to Brentford.[7] He finished his career in non-league football with spells at Southern League sides Bedford Town and Dartford.[8]

Personal life

While living in his native northeast, Stobbart worked as a miner and later ran a pub in Brentford.[8]
