John Henry Nash (December 1867 – 21 April 1939) was an English footballer.

Playing career

Nash most likely joined Burslem Port Vale in the autumn of 1890. His debut is believed to have come in a friendly at Middlesbrough Ironopolis on 22 November 1890; Vale lost 6-1 with Nash scoring the Vale goal. He hardly played thereafter and was released at the end of the 1892–93 season with 13 appearances (including 2 in the Football League and 6 in the Midland Football League) and 2 goals (including in 1 Midland League) to his name.[1]
