Playing career

Wintle joined Port Vale in May 1949 and made his only appearance for the club at right-back in a 7–1 home thrashing by Nottingham Forest on 2 February 1957. Forest's outside-left Stewart Imlach gave Wintle a very difficult afternoon.[1] He was given a free transfer in May 1957 and moved on to Crewe Alexandra.[2]
