Little is known about N.G. Hardaker, but it is thought that he was a Leeds United Junior, who only played two games for Leeds United. They were at Left Back in the 1944-45 Football League Northern Section (First Championship). His debut came in the game with Middlesbrough at Elland Road in a 4-2 win, and then he played at Elland Road three weeks later in a 2-1 victory over Newcastle United." It is thought that he was Neville Hardaker, from the Bradford area, who played a handful of games for the Leeds United Reserves at the start of the 1944-45 season" (Information kindly supplied by Neil Roche). It is not thought that Hardaker played professionally in the Football League.
