William T. Rhodes was a footballer who played one game at full-back for Burslem Port Vale in March 1894.

Career

[edit]

Rhodes joined Burslem Port Vale in July 1893.[1] He would have made his debut at Lincoln City on 24 February, but failed to turn up after missing his train.[1] Instead, he made his first start in a 6–4 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Athletic Ground on 5 March in the Staffordshire Senior Cup Second Round.[1] He played one Second Division match before being released, probably in 1896.[1]
