He is one of the few footballers to die as a result of an injury incurred while playing. Life and careerBorn in Bristol in 1870,[2] Powell had joined the Army as a young man, and served for six years in the South Staffordshire Regiment.[3] He played football for the regimental team, and impressed enough in a match against the then Royal Arsenal in October 1892 that the club bought him out of the Army and signed him as a professional that December.[2] Having turned professional, Arsenal had been shunned by many other clubs and county associations, and only competed in FA Cup matches and friendlies. A strong and purposeful right back, Powell immediately became a regular in the Arsenal side. In 1893 Royal Arsenal were accepted into the Football League and joined the Second Division under the new name of Woolwich Arsenal. Powell captained the side in its inaugural match against Newcastle United on 2 September 1893.[1] He went on to play in all but two of the club's League matches that season, and was a near ever-present for the next two seasons as well (missing three and five games respectively).[2] He scored his one and only League goal for Arsenal in a 5-0 victory over Loughborough on 4 January 1896.[2] In a United League match against Kettering on 23 November 1896, Powell broke his arm. He contracted blood poisoning and tetanus, and despite having the arm amputated he died six days later at his Plumstead home at the age of 26.[3][2] An inquest jury returned a verdict of accidental death, with no blame attaching to anyone involved.[4] He had played 92 League and FA Cup matches for the club.[2] References1. ^1 2 {{cite book |first=Jeff |last=Harris |editor-first=Tony |editor-last=Hogg |title=Arsenal Who's Who |publisher=Independent UK Sports |location=London |date=1995 |page=41 |isbn=978-1-899429-03-5}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Powell, Joe}}2. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url=http://www.thearsenalhistory.com/stat/aftlu.htm |title=Arsenal first team line-ups |first=Andy |last=Kelly |website=The Arsenal History |accessdate=29 May 2017}} Select season required. 3. ^1 {{cite web |url=https://www.arsenal.com/historic/players/joe-powell |title=Joe Powell |publisher=Arsenal F.C. |accessdate=2 November 2017}} 4. ^1 {{cite news |title=Fatal accident to a football player.
