Sidney Blunt (13 April 1902 – 1965) was an English footballer who played in the Football League for Port Vale.

Playing career

Blunt began his career with his hometown club Wolverhampton Wanderers, but never appeared for their first team. He had spells at Worcester City, Bilston United and Lichfield City before joining Port Vale in May 1924.

He was a first team regular at Vale until suffering a double fracture of his leg in a 3-0 home win against Swansea Town on 13 March 1926. He could not regain his first team place upon his recovery and instead was given a free transfer in May 1928.

Blunt later played for Shrewsbury Town and Hereford United.[1]
