Biography

Player #381 for Aston Villa, Francis Harry Shell, known as Frank Shell, played as a forward for the club.
Frank played for Villa between 1937-38 and 1938-39making 31 appearances and scoring 13 goals.
Frank was born in Hackney on 2 January 1912 and made his debut appearance for Villa on the 18 September 1937 aged 25.
Villa had signed Frank from Ford Sports (Dagenham) in May 1937.
Frank was most prolific in his debut season with the club, hitting 8 goals in 20 appearances as Villa won the Second Division Championship and gained promotion back to the top flight after two seasons away.
That season, Frank, also helped Villa reach the FA Cup semi final scoring 5 goals in 7 appearances.
The following season Frank would only make 4 appearances for Villa in Division One and with the outbreak of WW2 and suspension of league football Frank would only reappear for Villa 4 times in the 1945-46 post war regional league having played his final game of league football proper on 21 January 1939.
Frank moved to the newly renamed Birmingham City in September 1946.
Frank had played under managers Jimmy Hogan and Alex Massie.

On This Day
Jimmy Hogan's Villa lose to Preston in the FA Cup for the second successive season but this time do so in the fourth round rather than the semi final.
Meanwhile, forward Frank Shell made the last of his 31 pre WW2 appearances for Villa during which time he scored thirteen goals before moving on to the newly renamed Birmingham City in September 1946.
