Biography

Player #162 for Aston Villa, Henry Cooch, known as Harry Cooch played as a goalkeeper for the club.

Harry played for Villa between 1901-02 and 1907-08 making 25 appearances across his 7 seasons with the club.

Harry was born in Wellingborough on 1 January 1879 and made his first appearance for Villa as a 23 year old on 5th April 1902

Villa had signed Harry from Kettering FC and had the relative misfortune to be back-up to legendary Villa goalkeeper Billy George.

As a result the most appearances Harry achieved a season was in 1903-04 with 9 starts. Harry was the 21st custodian of the Villa goal in League & Cup football.

In total across his 25 appearances Harry conceded 45 goals at a ratio of 1.80 goals per game. Harry had kept 5 clean sheets in his 25 games with the club.

Harry also made a significant contribution to Villa's reserves side where he lined up as a defender rather than a goalkeeper.

Harry was a member of the reserve side that won
the Birmingham & District League for five successive years between 1903 and 1907.

Despite his lack of playing time Harry was highly rated with the September 1906 Aston Villa News & Record which celebrated the leading lights of Villa from formation to the then present day said of Harry:

โ€œA worthy comrade to the Villaโ€™s international goalkeeper, and many regard him as little inferior to the first team player. He possesses all the attributes for smart custodianship, being of especially fine physique, and combining activity with sound judgement."

Harry was forced to retire from football after making his final Villa appearance on 2nd September 1907 having sustained an injury during training which so seriously dislocated and fractured the index finger of his left hand, that it had to be part amputated.

Harry had played under the George Ramsay led Management Committee.

Such was typical of his fortitude and bravery Harry did make an unexpected return to football with Kettering Town in September 1908 before being signed by Walsall in 1909 where he played 32 games for their reserve side.

It was Villa where Harryโ€™s heart lay however and he returned to Villa Park to become both a coach and trainer at the club.

Harry served as assistant trainer to fellow ex-Villain Freddie Miles up until the latterโ€™s death in 1926 after which Harry was formally promoted to the role of first team trainer - although he had been undertaking much of the functions during Freddieโ€™s illness.

Harry continued to serve in the role under Billy Smithโ€™s management committee and later under Villaโ€™s first manager proper Jimmy McMullan however the latterโ€™s poor performance in post impacted Harryโ€™s future as the Villa News & Record of November 1936 euphemistically described:

โ€œHarry Cooch, whose health has for some time been indifferent, will have a lesser responsibility in taking charge of one or other of our teamsโ€.

Harry passed away on 12th May 1944 aged 64 whilst still active on the Villa staff.

Harry was living in the old โ€œCottageโ€ at Villa Park where he resided due to his Villa commitments.

The News & Record celebrated Harry in his obituary saying that:

โ€œTwo years ago he had a serious illness which necessitated an operation but he was soon up and about again and as active as ever. Ever of a cheery disposition, it was always a delight to meet and talk with him, for he got quite a lot out of life that many more missed, and our dressing room corridor, where he could usually be found, will be all the drearier and colder now that his sunny presence has gone from it.โ€

Few people have ever been so intrinsically interwoven with Villa as Henry โ€˜Harryโ€™ Cooch.

Died

12 May 1944, Aged 65

Billy made 107 appearances and scored 20 goals, winning the 1904-05 FA Cup during his time with the Villa.

Villa win consecutive games to end the season in 8th place having recorded eighteen wins, five draws and fifteen defeats in their thirty eight division one games. A season that had been notable for the number of debuts and final appearances - including a significant portion who both first appeared, and left in the same season, and sometimes the same month - underlined the status of transition that the club was in. The season itself couldnโ€™t have been more contrasting to the exciting, goal hungry season of 1904-05 and much more stability was to be needed for 1906-07 if Villa were to return to trophy winning form.

Villa suffer a second loss in three games as their decent early form takes a wobble to make it six wins, a draw and three losses in ten division one games so far this season. Meanwhile, centre back John Boden and midfielder Billy Matthews made their final appearances for Villa aged 24 and 26 before moving on to Northwich Victoria in August 1907 and Notts County in November 1906 respectively. Boden had scored twice in eighteen appearances since his debut in February 1906 whilst Matthews scored 12 goals in 26 games since his debut in March 1904.

On This Day

Villa open the season with a chastening home defeat to Manchester United - a team only promoted from the second tier for the first time for the previous season and who would go on to be crowned champions of the current campaign. Meanwhile, winger Charlie Wallace made his Villa debut aged 22 after moving from Crystal Palace in May 1907 for a fee of ยฃ500. Whilst, goalkeeper Harry Cooch made his final appearance for Villa aged 28 after making 25 appearances across his seven seasons with the club. Cooch had the relative misfortune to play for Villa during the same period as legendary โ€˜keeper Billy George which led to a custodian of quite some quality being selected far less than his talent allowed, Cooch would however cement his legacy with the club with his behind the scenes and coaching work across the coming decades. Also appearing for the final time was forward Frederick Chapple who made his eleventh and final Villa appearance aged 23 before moving on to Birmingham in December 1907.
