Perkins, Bill From a work in progress on foreign players who played for Liverpool FC: Harry Storer (who also played first class cricket for Derbyshire), then Bill Perkins, the former completely monopolising the 1897/98 season, the latter 1900/01 (with no backup in the squad!) Storer kept no fewer than 45 clean sheets for LFC but, for me, Perkins edges any contest between them by letting in only 37 goals in 36 matches, in 15 of which he kept a clean sheet in our League-winning year 1901.
