Football careerWheeler was born in Bilston, near Wolverhampton[1] and started his professional career with Walsall in the Football League Third Division North, for whom he scored three goals in eleven league appearances.[2] After a spell in the Cheshire County League with Mossley, Wheeler joined Brentford, before joining Northampton Town for the 1933–34 season, in which he made five appearances, scoring once.[2] In July 1934, he joined Southampton of the Second Division,[1] making his debut playing at inside-left at home to Port Vale on 27 August. He was in and out of the side for most of the season, with Arthur Holt the preferred inside-left. In November 1934, Wheeler played three matches at centre-forward in place of Norman Cole, scoring an "outstanding" hat-trick in the first 27 minutes of a 4–1 victory over Bradford City.[3] A lack of consistency led to him being dropped in favour of new signing, Walter Pollard, and Wheeler was transfer listed at the end of the season.[1] In August 1935, he joined Barnsley for a fee of £100,[1] and in October he moved on to Norwich City,[1] but he never played first-team football for either club.[2] In the summer of 1936, he joined his final league club, Gillingham, making a further eight league appearances, scoring three goals.[2] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite book| title=The Alphabet of the Saints|last= Holley|first= Duncan |author2= Chalk, Gary| publisher= ACL & Polar Publishing |year=1992|isbn=0-9514862-3-3|page=360}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{Cite book|title = Football League Players' Records 1888 to 1939|last = Joyce|first = Michael|publisher = Tony Brown|year = 2012|isbn = 190589161X|location = Nottingham|page = 307}} 3. ^{{cite book |title=Saints – A complete record|last= Chalk|first= Gary|author2=Holley, Duncan | publisher= Breedon Books|year=1987|isbn= 0-907969-22-4|pages=92–93}} External links
