Albert Calland (born 10 September 1929[citation needed]) is an English former professional footballer who played as a centre forward in the Football League for Torquay United.[1] He was born in Bishop Auckland, County Durham.
Albert Calland joined Torquay United in March 1950 from Langley Park, joining his older brother Ralph at Plainmoor. He had to wait a couple of years for his Gulls' debut, and soon after his younger brother Ted also arrived at the club.[citation needed] He scored 11 times in only 24 league games before leaving league football. Albert Calland reappeared in Devon playing for Bideford in the 1956 season with his second game being against Torquay United Reserves in the Western League Cup having scored four goals on his debut the week before against Chippenham in the Western League itself.[1]
