Timeline

1906

James Hampson (23 March 1906 – 10 January 1938) was an English professional footballer.

He spent eleven seasons at Blackpool, where he remains record goalscorer with 252 goals in 373 games, and is still regarded as one of the best centre forwards to play for the club.

Born in Little Hulton, Lancashire, Hampson began his career with Walkden Park.

1925

In 1925 he joined Football League Third Division, Nelson, and in his first season, 1925–26, he scored 13 goals in 20 league games.

During his first season at Nelson, Hampson scored hat-tricks in three consecutive games.

1926

The following season, 1926–27, he scored 23 goals in 35 games.

1927

In October 1927, he joined Blackpool for a fee of £1,000, scoring on his debut in a 3–1 defeat at Notts County on 15 October.

He went on to score 31 goals in the remaining 32 games of the 1927–28 season, including two in his second game for the club, against Manchester City.

Hampson held the record for the fastest century of goals: 101 in 97 games between 1927 and 1930.

1928

The following season, 1928–29, he scored 40 goals to become the Second Division's top scorer.

He scored five goals in the first four games that season, prompting other clubs to take an interest in signing him.

In September, Blackpool denied that they had received an offer from Arsenal.

After a 2–0 defeat to Stoke City on 13 October 1928, Blackpool fans cheered him off the pitch and he was described as being the "darling of Blackpool".

On 10 November, he scored a then club-record five goals in a 7–0 victory over Reading.

The record has since been equalled by Jimmy McIntosh.

Blackpool finished that season in eighth place.

1929

In July 1929, Millwall tried unsuccessfully to sign him.

The following December, Derby County also tried to sign him but were also turned down.

In 1929–30, Blackpool won the Second Division championship and were promoted to the top flight for the first time in their history.

Hampson was the top goalscorer in England with 46 strikes in 44 league and cup games.

He played one game, against local rivals Preston North End, at inside-right, but still scored one goal as Blackpool won 5–1.

1930

At the end of their debut season in the First Division (1930–31), Blackpool drew their final game against Manchester City to escape relegation back to the Second Division.

Although Blackpool conceded 125 goals, Hampson still managed to score 31 goals in 41 games.

1931

The following season, 1931–32, Blackpool again struggled against relegation, with Hampson scoring 23 league goals in 42 games as the club finished one place above the relegation places.

Again the club had to deny transfer rumours.

At the Supporters Club's annual dinner, held at the resort's Winter Gardens on 10 November 1931, the club stated that they had "no intention of parting with Hampson".

1932

The following season, 1932–33, Blackpool were relegated, finishing bottom of the league with Hampson scoring 18 league goals in 34 games.

1933

During the season, Hampson lost his position as centre-forward to defender Phil Watson before being moved to the right wing for the game against Sheffield United on 22 April 1933.

He was reinstated as centre-forward, however, for the final game of the season, at Newcastle United.

During the following 1933–34 season, it was reported that he had turned down the club's terms for a new contract; however, the terms were soon sorted and he signed on again for the next season.

After 21 games and 13 goals, he was injured and he made just one more appearance for the club that season.

1934

He scored a hat-trick in the opening game of the 1934–35 season against Bury; however, following a spell in which he did not score, he was dropped and Blackpool stated that they would be prepared to transfer him.

1935

He did not play again until February 1935, and ended the season on 21 goals from 25 starts.

He missed the start of the 1935–36 season with an injury, coupled with the club signing Scottish international striker Bobby Finan.

Hampson did not play until 9 October 1935, against Charlton Athletic, when he scored in a 1–1 draw.

He was not a regular starter that season and finished on just six goals from 21 games, although he had to play at inside-left for much of them.

1936

Hampson and Finan scored 44 goals between them in the 1936–37 season, with Hampson scoring 16 of them (not 15 as sometimes listed) as Blackpool finished as runners-up and were once again promoted to the First Division.

1937

Hampson started the 1937–38 season scoring four goals in 19 league games.

2006

Hampson was inducted into the Hall of Fame at Bloomfield Road, when it was officially opened by former Blackpool player Jimmy Armfield in April 2006.

2019

He missed just one game in his first season for the club, and his goals helped Blackpool stave off relegation, finishing the season 19th in the Second Division.
