John Pattison (outside-left) 1916
|
|||||||||
Born: Bedlington, 3 May 1889 Pattison graduated from local club Bedlington Colliery Welfare to earn
an opportunity with Hull City. He was never a regular but amassed 48 league
appearances in his three years with them. He was in the Hull City teams that beat Leeds City 3-2 on 12 September
1914 and then lost 1-0 to Leeds in the West Riding Cup final on 11 November
1914. Fortunately for him, he was absent when the
Peacocks won 6-2 at Anlaby Road eight weeks later. By the time Leeds City played away to Lincoln on 7 October 1916, Pattison
was on the books of the Imps. City arrived a man short and Pattison
turned out for Leeds. He normally played right-back but on the day he
played as left winger and scored the fourth goal in a 5-2 victory. After the war Pattison saw out his days in non-league football with Scunthorpe
& Lindsey United and then Bridlington Town. He died in 1978. |
