James Edward Colm "Ted" Farmer (born 21 January 1940 in Rowley Regis) is an English former footballer. He played just four seasons of league football before being forced to retire due to injury aged 24. ==Career== Farmer joined Wolves as an amateur in 1956, and after progressing in their reserves, broke into the first team. He scored twice on his senior debut, in a 3-1 win at Manchester United on 24 September 1960.〔("This Month’s Molineux Milestones" ) ''WolvesHeroes.com'', 2 September 2008〕 He ended the season as the club's leading scorer, with 28 goals, as they finished the league in third place. The following season saw him earn a call-up to the England Under-23 side, making a goal scoring debut in a 7-1 win over Israel. He scored a hat trick on his second cap in a 5-2 victory in the Netherlands. The striker broke his leg shortly afterward though, ending his 1961–62 campaign. Although he returned from his leg break, the next two seasons saw him continually affected by injuries, which ultimately caused him to retire in 1964. After retiring from playing, Farmer ran a pub in Dudley. He also qualified as a computer programmer and had a very successful career as an analyst/programmer with among other companies The Midlands Electricity Board. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ted Farmer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
