PositionOutside Left

Cunliffe guested for Liverpool in war-time matches only.

In October 1917, he received a lifetime ban from playing, becoming a manager and entering any football ground in the country.

This followed his involvement in 'coupon betting', which was fiercely condemned by the authorities at the time.

Following the war, the FA rescinded all wartime suspensions in recognition of the service and sacrifices made by many of the players.

Cunliffe signed for Oldham Athletic in 1919, though he played in just two games, the remainder of his time with the club was spent playing for the reserves.
