Stan Bright joined Exeter City from Cullompton and made a single first-team appearance in 1931 before joining Bournemouth.

Having played for Cullompton, Stan had been turning out regularly for City's reserves since 1929 before making his solitary Football League appearance in the 5-2 defeat at Bournemouth & Boscombe Athletic on 12th September 1931.

Oddly, after his release from St James' Park in the summer of 1932, Stan signed for the Cherries although he was never to make a league appearance during his time at Dean Court.

Stan died in the mid-Devon area in 1987.
