Football career
Huddersfield Town
Jepson was born in Glasshoughton, near Castleford in West Yorkshire and after leaving school worked in the coalmines, playing football with Frickley Colliery F.C. He was a late-comer to professional football and it was just after his 25th birthday that he was taken on by Huddersfield Town in May 1927. At that time Huddersfield were one of the top English football clubs, having won the Football League for three consecutive seasons in the mid-1920s, finishing as runners-up in 1926–27. With Scottish international Alex Jackson well-established at No. 7, Jepson had to content himself with a year in the reserves as Huddersfield again finished the season as League runners-up, coupled with a trip to Wembley for the 1928 FA Cup Final, where they were defeated 3–1 by Blackburn...
