Victor Norbury

Duncan Victor Norbury (3 August 1887 – 23 October 1972) was an English sportsman who played football and first-class cricket.

His first-class cricket career had a greater longevity, with Norbury playing eitherside of the First World War for Hampshire and Lancashire.

[6] Norbury spent most of his football career in the reserves, but made his debut for the first team as a replacement at left-back for Horace Glover away to Brentford on 29 September 1906.

This was Southampton's first win of the season (having managed only two draws in their first five matches); despite this, Norbury lost his place back to Glover and made only one further first-team appearance, taking over from Jack Eastham at right-back at home to Clapton Orient on 16 February 1907.

Following the resumption of first-class cricket, Norbury made his debut for Lancashire against Derbyshire at Old Trafford in the 1919 County Championship.

[16] Following his next match against Middlesex, Norbury found himself absent from the Lancashire side until late June following an attack of rheumatism.

[26] The following year, he made a final appearance in first-class cricket, when he played for Sir Lindsay Parkinson XI's against Leicestershire at Blackpool in 1935.
