Ernest Shepherd (14 August 1919 – 2001) was an English footballer who played in the Football League as an outside left for Fulham, West Bromwich Albion, Hull City and Queens Park Rangers.[1] He went on to manage Southend United.[2]
Shepherd was born in Wombwell, near Barnsley, in Yorkshire.[1] He joined Fulham in April 1938, following a successful trial in September 1937,[3] before signing for West Bromwich Albion in December 1948, moving on again only after only three months to Hull City.[4] He joined Queens Park Rangers in 1950, and made his debut in August that year against Chesterfield.[5] Shepherd played 219 league games for QPR scoring 51 goals before retiring from playing in 1957.[1]
He went on to coach both in England, for Hastings United and Bradford Park Avenue, and abroad, in Iceland and for Al-Wasl in the United Arab Emirates.[3] From 1967 to 1969 was manager of Southend United.
Shepherd died in Eastwood, Essex, in 2001.[2]
