Club(s) |
Played schoolboy football in Sheffield
and junior football with Meynell Youth Club, also in Sheffield. Joined
Sheffield Wednesday FC on amateur forms in 1948 close season. Quixall
turned professional on 25 August 1950. After 241 league
appearances and 63 goals, he became a Manchester United FC player
on 18 September 1958, after they paid a new British record transfer fee of
£45,000, beating a rival bid from Sunderland AFC. Interest from Newcastle
United FC and Middlesbrough FC in late 1961 failed to materialise into a
transfer. After a return of fity goals in 165 league appearances,
Oldham Athletic FC then paid £7000 for Quixall on 8 September 1964,
making 37 league appearances, scoring eleven goals. Joined
Stockport County FC in July 1966, but was forced to retire because of
injury in February 1967, making just thirteen league appearances,
but joined Altrincham FC later in the year for a brief spell,
three league appearances. |
