Biography of John McComb



HERITAGE NO : 269
John McComb by Alex Service

A bit of a mystery man in terms of Saints history, John was signed in September 1919 and was a threequarter who could operate on either flank. He made three appearances for the First Team overall. John made his debut at Swinton, on 13th September 1919. St.Helens lost 5-7 and John was on the right wing, with Tommy Gormley as his centre. His last match for the club was in the 8-17 defeat at Halifax on 22nd November, with John on the left wing this time. He worked in a glass works as a Railway Foreman. In 1939 he was living in Kirkland Street, St Helens. His name appears on the Council list of bereavements and he passed away in June 1965, aged 72. If anyone has any further information about John, we would be grateful to receive it.
