Peter Blackmore (* 1879 in Gorton , Manchester , † 1937 ) was an English football player .

Career

Blackmore made his debut for Newton Heath in the Football League Second Division on October 21, 1899 in the center-forward position in a 2-1 home win against New Brighton Tower . He was only the 8th game day after Neddy Lee , James Bain , Joe Clark and Jimmy Collinson, the fifth player who came in the 1899/1900 season in this position for the club. A week after his debut, he was in the third-round qualifier of the FA Cup against South Shore again in the team. After the 1: 3 defeat against the team from non-league football , Blackmore was criticized in the press with the words “he has to learn a lot before he is at the level of the Second Division” and certified “too easy” . The cup game was his last competitive game for Newton Heath.
