Jack Farrell (footballer)

Jack Farrell (footballer)

John (Jack) Farrell (born Tunstall, Staffordshire 1873, died 22 February 1947) was a professional footballer who played a major part in Southern league club Southampton's major cup runs at the turn of the 20th Century.

In 1898 Farrell helped guide the Saints to the semi finals, scoring in the emphatic defeat of First Division Bolton Wanderers in the quarter finals but they missed out on the cup final in a controversial defeat. [ [http://www.freewebs.com/captainbeecher/1898.htm Giant Killers 1898] ]

In 1900 FA Cup Final Farrell again played a major part as this time Southampton made it to the final only to be beaten on the day in a below par performance which commentators put down to infighting over player selection.
