Herbert Jones (3 September 1896 – 11 September 1973) was an English professional footballer who played as a defender. He played for various clubs in England, including Blackpool, Blackburn Rovers, where he won the FA Cup in 1928, and Brighton. He also played six times for the England national team.

Early life

Jones trained as a plumber before World War I. During the war, he was stationed in France. He took part in the truce of Christmas 1915.[1] He became a pacifist and remained so for the rest of his life.

In the summer of 1915 or 1916 he was hit by shrapnel when a shell exploded nearby. As a result of this injury he was honourably discharged.Шаблон:Citation needed

Football career

Шаблон:Refimprove section Jones began his football career, whilst still a part-time plumber, with his hometown club, Blackpool, making his debut on 16 December 1922, in a goalless draw against Hull City at Bloomfield Road.

Under new manager Major Frank Buckley in 1923–24, Jones made 28 league appearances. He also featured in Blackpool's two FA Cup ties that season.

The following season, 1924–25, Jones appeared in 34 of the club's 42 league dates. He again appeared during the club's FA Cup run, this time helping them to the fourth round. They were knocked out by Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park by a single goal in front of a crowd of 60,000.

Blackburn approached Blackpool the following season, 1925–26, with a view to signing the defender. Blackpool accepted the £6,000 offer,[2] and in mid-January he moved east across Lancashire. His final appearance for Blackpool occurred on 12 December 1925, in a goalless draw at Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Jones went on to play 247 league games for Rovers spanning from 1925 to 1934. He won the FA Cup with the club in 1928 (see 1928 FA Cup Final). After their relegation to Division Two in 1935–36, Rovers returned to the top flight in 1938–39.
