PROFILE
Stan was a wing-half who arrived at Anfield after playing for South Liverpool. He
made 6 League appearances in the second-half of the 1946-47 season, the first post-war
championship eventually going to Liverpool after they saw off one of their rivals
Wolverhampton in the final match at Molineux. Stan was called on 7 times the following
season but then moved on to Gordon Hodgson's Port Vale in July 1948. He was Port Vale's
skipper for four years and made 159 League appearances, scoring 14 goals.
NOTE: His name is often spelt wrongly in various sources as Polk.
