About Albert Walker

Lived 1910 – 1993 (aged 83). Albert Walker was a British association football player.

Albert Walker (4 February 1910 – April 1993) was an English professional footballer who played as a full-back in the Football League for Barrow, West Ham United and Doncaster Rovers.

Walker was born in Little Lever, near Bolton, Lancashire. After moving from his school team to Little Lever United of the Bolton and District League, Walker signed as an amateur for Southport. He spent little over a year at Haig Avenue before moving to Bolton Wanderers of the First Division.

He later rejoined West Ham as coach of the Metropolitan League team, then worked his way up through the Eastern Counties League and Football Combination teams before working with the first team. He retired in 1980.
