Playing career

Curley played for Northwich Victoria and Manchester City, before joining Port Vale in May 1935.[1] He played 24 Second Division and three FA Cup games in the 1935–36 season, and scored one goal in a 2–1 victory over Charlton Athletic at The Old Recreation Ground on 16 September.[1] The "Valiants" were relegated and Curley fell out of the first team picture, featuring in just three Third Division North games in the 1936–37 season.[1] He transferred to Colwyn Bay in November 1936, and later moved on to Macclesfield Town but only featured in the opening two games of 1937–38 Cheshire County League season and after spending time in the reserves he returned to Northwich Victoria.[2] Between 1937 and 1940 he played 64 games for Mossley.[3]

gollark: Not with existing technology. Maybe at some point.
gollark: Especially since I think legally they'd have to pay for/raise it and stuff.
gollark: I don't see a significant reason they should be obligated to have the child for you.
gollark: Analogously, I would say you should probably not be required to have someone grafted to your circulatory system and stuff for 9 months if this would keep them from an otherwise lethal disease or something. You maybe *should* morally, but this is a different thing (and I don't think that really applies in the fetus case, as it isn't much of a "person").
gollark: Actually, I seem to have misread your angle, so it isn't entirely relevant. But regarding "I'll tell them what not to do with others bodies. And the child is another body. It's medically provable.", I would argue that you should not be *required* to put up with fairly substantial health risks/inconvenience because the fetus requires being attached to someone to survive.
