John Elliot Page (23 September 1901 – 1979) was an English footballer who played in the Football League for Millwall and Luton Town. He played in either inside-forward position, or as a left-half.[1]
Born in Grays, Essex, Page played for Grays Thurrock United before joining Millwall in April 1926. The move represented the highest transfer fee paid for a Kent League player.[2] He made 16 appearances, scoring three goals, over four seasons with Millwall, before joining Luton Town in 1930. He spent a single season at Luton, making four appearances and scoring one goal. He then moved to Chatham Town.[1]
