About Les Major

  • Leslie Dennis Major (25 January 1926 – 2001) was an English footballer who played as a goalkeeper. He played schoolboy football in Loughborough for Brush Sports, where he was spotted by representatives of Leicester City.
  • He spent two years with the club, making 26 league appearances, before joining Plymouth Argyle on a free transfer as back-up to Welsh international Bill Shortt.
  • He made 23 appearances in his first four seasons with the club, including two in their 1951–52 Third Division South championship winning season.
  • Shortt retired from League football in 1956, and it seemed likely that Major would become the club's first-choice goalkeeper but he was forced to retire from the game that year through injury.
  • He made 78 appearances in all competitions during a seven-year stint with Argyle.
  • He died in Derby in 2001.
