John MacGregor Salter (3 August 1898 – 21 June 1982)[1] was an Anglo-Scottish professional footballer who made one Football League appearance as an inside forward for Southampton in 1923.[2]
Salter was born in Bitterne, Southampton and was enlisted in the British Army during the First World War. During the war he suffered from gas poisoning and never made a full recovery, finding regular daily training exhausting.[3]
Having played local football with Bitterne Sports, he was signed by Southampton of the Football League Second Division in October 1923.[3] He made his debut when he replaced Henry Johnson as inside left for the match at Fulham on 10 November 1923. The match ended in a 3–2 defeat and Salter was replaced by Len Andrews for the next match.[4]
With only the one first-team appearance to his name, Salter was released in the summer of 1924 and took up employment with Thornycroft shipbuilders at Woolston.[3]
