Biography

Villa Crest 2025.jpg

Player #382 for Aston Villa, William James Carey, known as Bill Carey, played as a goalkeeper for the club.

Bill played for Villa in 1937-38 making 4 appearances.

Bill was born in Prestwich, Manchester on 21 September 1913 and made his debut appearance for Villa on the 16 October 1937 aged 24.

Villa had signed Bill from Sedgley Park in May 1936.

Bill was the 45th custodian of the Villa goal in League & Cup football and over his 4 games Bill kept 3 clean sheets conceding just once at a ratio of 0.25 goals per game.

That was a better ratio than any other Villa keeper to date playing more than once for the club.

Bill however would not get the opportunity to test his talent over a longer spell however as he played his final game on 23 February 1938 before retiring from football.

Bill had played under manager Jimmy Hogan.

Bill passed away in Colchester in September 1998 aged 85.

Died

1 September 1998, Aged 85

On This Day

With Fred Biddlestone injured Bill Carey is named as replacement 'keeper just 10 minutes before kick off as a late decision is made to play him ahead of 16 year old clerk from the Villa staff offices, Alan Wakeman. 


Eric Houghton hits a brace to make it three in as many games as Villa get their promotion push back on track with a seventh win of the season in eleven games under Jimmy Hogan.

Villa recover from their third defeat in ten games to beat Newcastle and make it seven wins, a draw and three defeats in eleven division two games under Jimmy Hogan. Meanwhile, centre forward Tommy Clayton and goalkeeper Bill Carey made their Villa debuts aged 27 and 24 after joining from Wolverhampton Wanderers and Hereford United earlier this month and in in May 1936 respectively.
