Alec Talbot (13 July 1902 – 13 August 1975) was an English footballer who played as a centre-half for Aston Villa during the 1920s and 1930s.
Talbot signed as a professional for Villa in April 1923, immediately after completing a 10-hour shift down the mines at the colliery in Cannock. He broke into the Villa side in 1924–25, making the position his own from 1928-29 until 1934–35. Talbot assumed the role of club captain on the retirement of Villa great Billy Walker. In all he made 263 appearances, scoring 7 goals for the club.
In the 1931–32 season, Talbot made 45 appearances, the most of any player.[1]
Talbot left Villa for Bradford in June 1935, staying there until the outbreak of World War II.
After the war Talbot started his own dairy business in Stourbridge.
