Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Template:Use British English Template:Infobox football biography Joseph Godfrey (January 1894 – January 1977), commonly known as Joby Godfrey, was an English professional footballer who played in the Football League for Birmingham, Coventry City, Manchester City and Merthyr Town.[1] He played as a forward.
Godfrey was born in Waleswood, near Rotherham.[1] He scored freely in wartime competition, but was unable to settle when the Football League began again.[2] He scored on his debut for Birmingham in the Second Division on the opening day of the first post-war season, in a 4–1 home win against Hull City,[3] but by the end of that season he had moved to Merthyr Town via both Coventry City and Manchester City. After a year with Merthyr, in which he rarely appeared for the first team, he moved into non-league football back in his native Yorkshire.[1][2]
