George Heppell (2 September 1916 – 20 July 1993) was an English football goalkeeper who made 213 league and cup appearances for Port Vale either side of World War II. His father-in-law, Albert Pearson, and great-grandson, Tom Conlon, both also played for Port Vale.

Career

Heppell joined Port Vale from Wolverhampton Wanderers in May 1937.[1] He made 25 Third Division North appearances in the 1937–38 season, as goalkeeping duties were split between himself and James Nicholls.[1] However, he played just three Third Division South games in the 1938–39 season, as new signing Arthur Jepson became the club's first choice goalkeeper.[1] Heppell was enlisted into the Army in February 1940.[1] Despite this he managed to guest for Nottingham Forest and Middlesbrough during World War II, before returning to Port Vale following his demobilization in January 1946.[1] He was an ever-present during the 1946–47 season, as his form convinced the club to sell Jepson to rivals Stoke City.[1] He remained Gordon Hodgson's first choice goalkeeper, playing 40 games in the 1947–48 campaign.[1] He played 38 games in the 1948–49 season, ahead of reserves Ray Hancock and Harry Prince.[1] However, he then lost his place, and played just three games in the 1949–50 season as new signing Ray King proved to be in impressive form.[1] He featured 17 and 28 times in the 1950–51 and 1951–52 seasons, before being handed a free transfer away from Vale Park by new boss Freddie Steele in May 1952.[1] He later played Cheshire County League football for Witton Albion, featuring in 18 games during the 1952–53 season.[2]
