Villa had signed Jack from Ashington in September 1919.
Jack had an immediate impact on the first team, becoming a regular pick in the defence through to February 1920.
Jack made 17 League appearances in his first season but did not feature in the successful FA Cup campaign including playing in the FA Cup Final victory over Huddersfield Town in front of a crowd of 50,018 at Stamford Bridge.
Asked if he was nervous match ahead of his debut match against West Bromwich Albion: , he is reported to have replied “Why no, I fought against the Germans!”.

Jack moved on to Brighton & Hove Albion in August 1921.
Jack played under the George Ramsay led Management Committee.
