Hill was signed from Grimeshorpe's local team in the summer of 1891[1] but despite spending almost eight years registered with Sheffield United he spent the majority of that time in the reserves and never played more than five consecutive games for the first team.[1] He did play fifteen times in The Football League, playing his last competitive match in February 1896,[1] but featured in only a handful of friendly fixtures after that.[1] Despite this United retained his league registration until the summer of 1899 after which his contract with the club was terminated.[1]

gollark: I don't think this is likely to be a significant issue.
gollark: So unless people get able to measure those things more directly, it's entirely possible that requirements will just creep up.
gollark: Anyway, as increasing amounts of people have been going to university, and it requires some basic level of competence at a subject, ability to follow instructions, learning, that sort of thing, *not* going to university serves as an increasingly strong signal that you *don't have* that competence/ability to follow instructions/etc.
gollark: God died in 1996.
