Harold Booton (2 March 1906 – 22 October 1976) was an English professional footballer who made 156 appearances as a right-back in the Football League.[1][2]
Booton was born in Annesley, Nottinghamshire. He began his football career with Annesley Colliery and Shirebrook, and joined Birmingham in 1929. He became a first-team regular for Birmingham after George Liddell retired, and made 162 appearances in all competitions, including 149 in the First Division. He was a solid tackler and kicked powerfully, but his distribution of the ball was wayward.[1] He later played for Luton Town, for whom he played seven league games, and Atherstone Town.[2] He died in Denham, Buckinghamshire, in 1976 at the age of 70.[1]
