Early and personal life


Willie Pease was born on 30 September 1899 in Leeds.[1] His birth name has been mis-reported as William Harold Pease.[1] He was the second of five children.[1]


Career


Pease began his career with Holbeck St. Barnabas before joining the Royal Northumberland Fusiliers during World War I.[1] He signed for Leeds City as an amateur, being sold to Northampton Town (again as an amateur) in October 1919.[1] He moved to Middlesbrough in May 1926, and to Luton Town in June 1933.[1][2] A role as player-manager of Gateshead in December 1934 and a later role with Hartlepools United both fell through, and he retired in January 1935.[1]

Pease earned one international cap for England in 1927.[1][4]


Later life and death
