Arthur Farwell

Arthur G. Farwell (died December 1940) was a footballer who played as a forward in the early years of Southampton St. Mary's, including making two appearances in the FA Cup.

Football career Farwell joined St. Mary's in 1888 and remained with the club for five years. Farwell appeared in all seven matches as the Saints eventually reached the final on 6 April 1889, a 3–0 victory over Christchurch.

He scored goals regularly and was ever-present in the club's runs to victory in the Hampshire Junior Cup in 1889–90 (scoring in the final) and in the Hampshire Senior Cup in 1890–91.

Although he remained with the club until the summer of 1893, he was employed in the drapery department of the Edwin Jones store, thus making him unavailable for Saturday afternoon matches. Consequently, he did not play in that season's FA Cup matches, although he did play in all three Hampshire Senior Cup matches, including the 2–1 defeat to Freemantle in the final.
