Alex Scott (footballer, born 1913)

Robert Alexander Scott (29 October 1913 – 1962)[2] was an English football goalkeeper, who spent most of his career with Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Scott began his career as a groundsman at his hometown club Liverpool, but was unable to break into the first team.

Scott still managed to play 85 times for Wolves in Wartime and turned out as a guest for both Aston Villa and Southport in friendlies, while also serving as a policeman.

However, the resumption of league football saw the end of Scott's time with Wolves, as they opted for Bert Williams to take over as first choice goalkeeper.

After ending his football career, he ran a general store in Wolverhampton and later served in the local police force before his death in 1962.
