Lost Football Heroes of the First World War

Lost Football Heroes of the First World WarOver 100 years ago, many professional footballers answered the call to arms and enlisted for King and Country, swapping the football shirt and ball for uniform and rifle. Many were to be maimed and injured, ending their football careers, but over 450 were less fortunate, making the ultimate sacrifice and showing the same bravery on the battlefield as they did on the football pitch.
