[edit] Club career
Jack Cooper was a member of the Barnsley side who won the FA Cup in 1912[1] beating West Bromwich Albion in the replay after the first match ended goaless. He fumbled a save in the first fifteen minutes of the first match and was saved from embarrassment by a lack of WBA forwards.[2] . In the replay he made an important save, diving onto his side, to save a quick shot from Bob Pailor, the WBA centre forward [3], though the ball was finally cleared by Bob Glendinning.
