Past playersBilly Hartill

    • Years: 1936

    • Appearances: 4

    Billy Hartill's brief Liverpool career was condensed into four games between January 18 and February 22, 1936.

    A forward player who had previously scored prolifically for Wolverhampton Wanderers, he moved to the Reds in that New Year after just six months on the other side of Stanley Park with Everton.

    But his introduction into the Liverpool team coincided with a terrible goal drought in which only two were scored in seven matches, both by Jack Balmer.

    Hartill disappeared almost as quickly as he had arrived and never played for the club again. He was part of the deal that brought future legend Phil Taylor to the Reds from Third Division Bristol Rovers in March 1936.
