Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox football biography Harold "Harry" Troops (10 February 1926 – 5 March 1963) was an English professional footballer who scored 34 goals from 358 appearances in the Football League playing for Barnsley, Lincoln City and Carlisle United.[1]

Life and career

Troops was born in Sheffield, Yorkshire,[2] and began his football career with Barnsley. He played three games in the Second Division for Barnsley, scoring once, before joining Lincoln City in 1949.[2] He played at outside right for his first few seasons with Lincoln, and was ever-present in both 1950–51 and 1951–52, when he contributed to the club's Third Division North title.[2] The 1951–52 forward line – Troops, Johnny Garvie, Andy Graver, Ernie Whittle and Roy Finch – scored more goals than any other league club's forwards that season.[3] In the later part of his career, he played at full back. He left the club in 1958, having scored 35 goals from 310 games in all senior competitions,[2] a total which at the time placed him sixth in Lincoln's all-time appearances list.[4] Troops finished his career with two seasons at Carlisle United, whom he joined for a £2,000 fee.[2]

After his retirement from football, Troops worked in a steelworks. He died in a road accident in Sheffield in 1963 at the age of 37.[2]
