Timeline
Alan A'Court (30 September 1934 – 14 December 2009) was an English professional footballer who mostly played for Liverpool.
A'Court, who followed Rugby league, signed from Prescot as an 18-year-old in September 1952, spurning the advances of Everton and Bolton Wanderers to become an Anfield apprentice, a decision that paid off as just six months after joining he made his first team debut.
The following season A'Court played 16 times, as Liverpool were relegated to the Second Division.
During the Anfield club's first season in the second tier of English football A'Court established himself as a first team regular making 33 league and cup appearances.
A'Court remained consistent as Liverpool failed to regain their top flight status.
By the age of 24 years and 89 days he had played 200 league games for the Reds becoming the youngest player to do so, a record that still stands.
A'Court made his debut in a league match at Ayresome Park on 7 February 1953, a game that saw Liverpool take both the points from a 3–2 win.
His first goal came a month later on 14 March, again in a league match, this time at Anfield in a 2–0 victory over Sunderland.
Whilst still in Division 2 A'Court's skill alerted England manager Walter Winterbottom, who was looking for a player to replace an injured Tom Finney; Winterbottom handed the left winger the first of his five caps on 6 November 1957 in a British Championship match against Northern Ireland at Wembley.
A'Court's only goal for his country and a goal for Duncan Edwards were not enough to prevent England losing the game 3–2.
He gained five caps for England and represented the nation at the 1958 FIFA World Cup.
Born in Rainhill, Lancashire, England, A'Court was a winger who started out at Prescot Cables as an amateur before he was signed by Reds manager Don Welsh.
The highlight of his career was representing England at the 1958 FIFA World Cup in Sweden, where he played in England's last three matches against Brazil (0–0), Austria (2–2), and the group stage play-off game against the USSR (0–1).
He did this despite playing for a club in the Second Division.
Unfortunately for A'Court, injuries began to take their toll.
Although the strong and talented A'Court could have left to play for teams in the First Division, his loyalty to Liverpool was rewarded in 1961–62 when, as an ever-present, he and the Reds celebrated promotion back to the First Division under the guidance of Bill Shankly, finishing a full eight points (in the days of two points for a win) clear of second placed Leyton Orient.
A'Court was selected 23 times during Liverpool's first season back amongst football's elite teams; he helped Liverpool to an eighth-place finish in the First Division.
He missed the whole of the 1963–64 championship winning season, so Shankly signed Peter Thompson from Preston North End.
After spending most of his career at Liverpool, playing 382 times and scoring 63 goals, A'Court was allowed to leave.
He joined Tranmere Rovers for a fee of £4,500 in October 1964.
A'Court's final outing in a Red shirt was in a historic match: Liverpool's first ever European match at Anfield, the game was a European Cup preliminary round 2nd leg match on 14 September 1964.
Liverpool had won the first encounter with Icelandic side KR 5–0 but rather than treat the return leg as a mere formality, the Reds finished off the job with a comprehensive 6–1 victory.
A'Court later became player-coach at Norwich City before taking on various coaching jobs, including posts in Zambia and New Zealand, he also became assistant manager at Stoke City when Tony Waddington called upon his services in 1969.
His only match in charge of Stoke came in the FA Cup at home to non-league Blyth Spartans in 1977–78, Stoke lost the match 3–2.
Once new manager Alan Durban was appointed A'Court moved to Crewe Alexandra as an assistant manager.
He then went to join the sport staff at North Staffordshire Polytechnic.
In January 1978 George Eastham was sacked and A'Court was put in caretaker charge.
He managed Nantwich Town from September 1983 to April 1984.
After finally retiring from football, A'Court ran a tobacconist/newsagent shop on the borders of Birkenhead and Bebington.
A'Court died of cancer on 14 December 2009.
