Career
Born in Ogmore Vale, Mort played amateur football for Gilfach Goch before joining Cardiff City in February 1934.[2] He made his first-team debut on 3 March 1934 in a 3–1 victory over Queens Park Rangers and remained in the side for the final twelve matches of the season.[3][4] However, at the end of the season, Cardiff signed Billy Bassett who became first choice. Mort remained with Cardiff until 1938, making sporadic appearances, before joining Carlisle United.[3]
He was a cousin of Aston Villa defender Tommy Mort.[2]

gollark: I could host this "video" for you off my server, but you would need to send it to me somehow in any case and also my upload speed means that at any decent bitrate only something like 4 people could watch it at once.
gollark: What a surprise.
gollark: It'll be in really bad quality. 320kbps is... not high, for video.
