Stan Cribb

Stanley Roy Cribb (11 May 1905 – 13 January 1989) was an English professional footballer who played for Southampton, Queens Park Rangers and Cardiff City as an outside left in the 1920s and 1930s.

He won County representative honours at sixteen before joining Gosport Athletic, helping them to win the Hampshire League in 1924.

Cribb made his debut for Southampton on 24 January 1925, in a Second Division match against Crystal Palace, replacing Jimmy Carr on the left-wing.

[1] In their first season (1944–45), the football section of the Club won the Portsmouth and District League Division One; the line-up at that time included Jimmy Scoular and Peter Harris who both went on to become full internationals.

Following his retirement, he retained his connections with football, scouting for Southampton and rarely missing a match at Privett Park.
