From The Guardian:

Another Mancunian, 'Old Surefoot' was considered to be one of the best uncapped players in the country. Signed by Manchester United from Sandbach Ramblers in 1925, the defender moved to Man City in 1932, then Ipswich in 1938. He is the only player in this picture to have won the FA Cup, with City in 1934, but looks no less distressed by defeat to Villa. War brought Dale's football career to an end (though, like several other players, he made guest appearances for Norwich City) and he became a plumber. He died in Manchester in 1987, aged 82.
