Bertie Menlove (8 December 1892 – 3 July 1970)[1] was an English footballer who played as a forward in the Football League for Crystal Palace and Sheffield United.[2]


Born in St Albans, Menlove transferred in 1920 from Barnet & Alston to Aston Villa.[3] He didn't make any league appearances for Villa and moved on to Crystal Palace[4], then of the Southern League. He scored his only hat–trick for Palace in a Southern League march versus Gillingham in March 1920.[5] The following season Palace joined the newly constituted Third Division and with Menlove scoring five goals[6] that season they topped the league and secured promotion to the Second division. Notable that season was an FA Cup win over then First Division Manchester City[7], a game in which Menlove scored. The following season Palace achieved a 6-0 FA cup win at first division Everton[8] (this remains Everton's largest home cup defeat) with Menlove netting a couple. His tally of seven goals in the 1921–22 season[9] for now second division Palace encouraged First Division Sheffield United to sign him in the spring of 1922.[10]


During his spell (1922–1926) at Sheffield United in 81 appearances Menlove scored 43 goals[11] (41 in the league) including two hat–tricks: against Tottenham in March 1924 and Birmingham in October 1925[12]. Despite his goal scoring record Menlove did not play in Sheffield United's 1925 FA Cup Final winning team.


After leaving Sheffield United Menlove played for the 1926–1927 Midland League runners-up Boston Town[13] and was there the following season too.[14] In 1929 Menlove moved to Bangor[15] in North Wales and played with Bangor Athletic playing in the Wales National League (North), and he married whilst in the city.[16]


In 1932 Menlove was playing for Ashford Town[17] in the Kent League - a season in which the club were league runners-up and they scored an Ashford Town season record 115 league goals. The following season he served as player-manager at the club[18]


Menlove died in July 1970.[19]
