Henry "Harry" Cotton (5 April 1882 – 1921) was an English footballer who played in goal for Nantwich, Burslem Port Vale, Crewe Alexandra, and Stoke in the 1900s.
Playing career
Cotton played for Nantwich, before joining Burslem Port Vale in May 1901. Preferred to William Chadwick, he played 29 Second Division games in the 1901–02 season. He played 32 league games in the 1902–03 and 1903–04 campaigns, and fended off competition from new signing Arthur Box to play 31 league games in the 1904–05 season.
