SUNDERLAND COMPLETE RECORD TRANSFER
On this day in 1948, Sunderland completed the signing of Len Shackleton from rivals Newcastle United for a British record fee of £20,500.
Born in Bradford, Shackleton began his professional career with Bradford Park Avenue before moving to Newcastle United in 1946. Extremely prolific in front of goal, Shackleton scored six goals on his debut as the Magpies hammered Newport County 13-0 in a Division Two fixture. The Bradford man’s consistency attracted the attention of big spenders and Newcastle’s fiercest rivals Sunderland. The Black Cats had earned the nickname of the ‘Bank of England’ club for their lavish spending and had some of the country’s biggest names in their squad.
So on 4th February, Shackleton’s big money move broke the previous British transfer record set by David Jack when he moved from Bolton Wanderers to Arsenal in 1928. Shackleton played 348 league matches for Sunderland scoring 101 goals before retiring in 1957.
