Arnold William Rodgers (5 December 1923 – October 1993) was an English professional footballer who made over 230 Football League appearances in the years after the Second World War in a career for Huddersfield Town, Bristol City and Shrewsbury Town.
Rodgers had initially played for Huddersfield as a guest in 1942,[1] before he signed on full-time in 1946. After Shrewsbury Town he moved to Somerset where he was manager for non-league clubs Welton Rovers, which he helped to two losing first round appearances in the FA Cup (in 1964-65 and 1967-68), and Bath City from 1967 to 1971.[1]
Following retirement from football he ran a business in Bristol as a florist for 37 years until he died of a heart attack in October 1993, aged 69.[1]
