Seth King

Seth King (14 February 1897 – 8 February 1958) was an English footballer who played as a defender in The Football League. Born in Penistone, West Riding of Yorkshire, England, he began his career as an amateur playing for his local church team. After a spell in Huddersfield Town's reserves, he signed as a professional for Sheffield United, for whom he played over 100 times and won an FA Cup winners medal in 1925. He later had spells at Oldham Athletic and Denaby United before retiring.

Career King had been spotted by Huddersfield Town in 1919, playing as an amateur for his local church side. He spent a season in Town's reserves but was not offered a long-term contract and returned to his local club.

Like many other defenders King found the changes to the offside law for the 1925–26 season difficult to adapt to, but retained his place until 1927 when the club signed Vince Matthews.
