Joe Calvert
Joe Calvert (3 February 1907 – 23 December 1999) was a British professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper for Bristol Rovers, Leicester City and Watford. Career. Calvert began his career in senior non-league football, playing for Owston in the Doncaster League before being signed by Frickley Colliery in the 1929/30 season. There is some evidence to suggest he was signed by Hull City in the 1930/31 season but did not make a senior appearance for the club, before transferring to Bristol Rovers in the 1931/32 season. After one season at Bristol Rovers Calvert moved to Leicester City  and became dedicated servant of the club, including during the Second World War. In January 1948 Calvert requested a transfer and was sold to Watford where he played only a handful of games. Records. He is one of the oldest players ever to play for either Leicester or Watford in the Football League; he transferred from Leicester to Watford a few weeks before his 41st birthday.
