CareerFootball careerHowell was born in Herne Hill and educated at Winchester College whom he represented at various sports, including "soccer", cricket and athletics, winning the 100 yds, 300 yds and 110 yds hurdles in 1866. After leaving the college, he joined the Wanderers and helped them retain the FA Cup which they had won the previous year. Under the competition rules, Wanderers were given a "bye" to the final, where they met Oxford University at Lillie Bridge on 29 March 1873. In the early stages of the final, Oxford "made the running... with Howell and Thompson performing admirably in the Wanderers defence to keep the University students at bay".[2] Despite the students' efforts, Wanderers won the game 2–0, and thus retained the trophy. This was Howell's first match for the Wanderers; he is, thus, one of the few players to have made his debut in an FA Cup Final. His solitary appearance for England had come three weeks before the Cup Final, in the second international match against Scotland played at Kennington Oval, London on 8 March 1873. England selected a side with a strong Wanderers influence, including Charles Chenery, Robert Vidal, Alexander Bonsor, William Kenyon-Slaney and Hubert Heron. England won the match 4–2.[3] His football career was brought to an end following an injury sustained during the 1873–74 season.[4] Cricket careerAs well as playing football at a high level, Howell was also an accomplished cricketer who made nineteen first-class appearances for Surrey and Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) between 1869 and 1880. He played as a right-hand batsman and his best season was 1870 when he scored 163 runs from eight innings. In the match against Oxford University in June/July 1870, he scored 49 in the first innings, followed by his career top score of 96 in the second innings. Despite his efforts, Oxford University won the match by three wickets.[5] In his cricket career, he scored a total of 519 runs from 34 innings, at an average of 18.53. Later lifeAfter leaving Winchester College, he became a malt factor.[6] He died at Lausanne in Switzerland on 7 September 1895, aged 47.
