About Fred Hargreaves
Lived 1880 – 1917 (aged 36–37). Fred Hargreaves was a British association football player.
Career A centre forward, Hargrave began his career with his local non-league club Atherstone Town, before transferring to First Division club Aston Villa in July 1901, for whom he failed to make a senior appearance. After a spell with Midland League club Walsall, he transferred to Second Division club Burton United in July 1903.
