Ron Jeffries
Player #425 for Aston Villa, Ronald John Jeffries, known as Ron Jeffries, played as a centre forward for the club. Ron played for Villa in 1950-51 appearing twice.
Ron was born in Hall Green, less than 7 miles from Villa Park, on 24 March 1930 and made his debut appearance for Villa on Saturday, 17 February 1951 at the age of 20.
Villa had signed Ron from Moor Green in December 1950 having been a much sought after player as a local amateur Ron joined Villa as a professional and as a well built centre forward with a good shot proved able to use his head in more ways than one.
Despite his promise Ron went on to make his second and final appearance for the club on Saturday, 10 March 1951 before moving on to Walsall.
Ron had played under Villa manager George Martin.
A note on player numbering
Players are allotted a number following their debut, and those making debuts in the same match are listed in order of position played
i.e. Goalkeeper -> Defender -> Midfielder -> Forward.
Players making debuts as substitutes in the same game are listed in the order in which they went on.
Matches which have been expunged from the records, including those which were abandoned and the first three fixtures of 1939-40 before the outbreak of the Second World War, are not included. Neither are the unofficial games which were played during the war years before the FA Cup resumed in 1946.
