Joseph Frederick "Fred" Hargraves (1884 – 1960), sometimes known as Fred Hargreaves, was an English professional football forward who played for Burton United, Leeds City and Stoke.
Career
Hargraves began his career with Burton United and in his first season as a professional he scored 15 goals in 38 matches which included six goals in eight FA Cup matches in 1903–04. He hit five in 26 for Burton in 1904–05 and was signed by Leeds City in 1905. He again had a prolific season hitting 19 goals in 34 matches and again enjoyed success in the FA Cup scoring seven goals in six matches in 1905–06. However he swapped positions in 1906–07 and as a result his goals dried up. He left Leeds in 1908 for Birmingham & District League side Stoke and scored 11 goals in 15 matches for the "Potters" in 1908–09.
