About Terry Allcock
Terence Allcock (10 December 1935 – 11 June 2024) was an English professional footballer who played as a forward for Bolton Wanderers and Norwich City. He was also a cricketer who played for Norfolk County Cricket Club. Despite his good start, Allcock was unable to secure a regular first team spot at Burnden Park because he was competing against internationals Nat Lofthouse, Willie Moir and Harold Hassall for a place in the team. He made his first team debut in October 1953 against Manchester City and scored twice in the first twenty minutes. In his first full season at Carrow Road, Norwich had one of the most famous FA Cup runs of all time when they reached the semi-finals as a Third Division.
