Having helped win promotion for Villa in the previous season,[3] the 1937–38 pre-season Jubilee Fund matches saw Villa pitched against local rivals West Bromwich Albion. The derby match ended in a 1–1 draw with Broome scoring for Villa and Harry Jones grabbing one for the Baggies.[4]
Broome guested for Nottingham Forest during WW2, making 3 appearances (1 goal) in 1939–40, 1 appearance (4 goals) in 1940–41 and 10 appearances (4 goals) in 1941–42. He also guested for Wolves during wartime, playing and scoring in the 1942 War Cup Final.
In 1955 Broome signed for Shelbourne,[1] making his League of Ireland debut on 27 February. The nearest he came to scoring was when he had a penalty saved at Glenmalure Park on 27 March in the FAI Cup.
Approaching 40 years of age and coupled with the expense of weekly flights to Dublin he ended up only playing 6 games for Shels.
After retiring from playing, he went on to manage both Exeter City, Southend United and in Australia.[1][5]
