Jackie Wood

Edward John "Jackie" Wood (born 23 October 1919 in Canning Town, London, died 1993) was an English footballer who played as an outside left.

Wood played amateur football with Leytonstone, and once for England, before signing pro with West Ham United in 1937. His debut came with a 0-4 mauling of Manchester United in the old Second Division on 23 February 1938. He made ten appearances for the Hammers before the outbreak of World War II, but served as a Territorial with the Essex Regiment during the conflict.

After the war, and the resumption of football for the 1945-46 season, Wood made a further 52 appearances, scoring 15 goals, until his departure in 1949. His first goals for the club came with a brace against Arsenal in a 6-0 FA Cup win on 5 January 1946.

Wood joined East London neighbours Leyton Orient in October 1949. He made ten appearances for Orient.
