Biographical Text

Sydney Pavey spent four years as Exeter City’s second-choice goalkeeper between 1922 and 1926 having joined the club from Taunton.

Sydney signed for Exeter City from Taunton United in November 1922 and made his Football League debut in a 4-0 home win over Newport County on 10 February 1923. He went on to feature in the last 16 matches of 1922/23 but after that had to be mainly content with reserve team football as he made just one league appearance in 1923/24 and ten in 1925/26.

Leaving St James' Park at the end of the 1925/26 season, he lived in Taunton for the rest of his life and died in the Somerset town in 1979.
