Biography
Howe was born in Sunderland on 18 October 1884. He had a younger brother, Joe, who was also a footballer.[2] After playing for teams around nearby Harton, he joined Kingston Villa in the Wearside Football League.[2] In 1903, Howe signed for Reading, before moving to the newly founded Hull City a year later.[1]
On 17 September 1904, Howe played in Hull City's first-ever competitive fixture, a 3–3 draw away to Stockton in the preliminary rounds of the 1904–05 FA Cup, in which he scored Hull's third.[1] During his time with Hull, Howe was the club's captain.[2]
In 1907, he returned to the North East with South Shields, but retired after just one season.[1][2]
