Herbert Lock (21 January 1887 – 16 March 1957) was an English professional goalkeeper who played for Southampton and Rangers in the early part of the twentieth century. Playing career Southampton Born in Southampton he played his early football for St. Mary's Guild before joining Southampton F.C. in the summer of 1907. He immediately forced himself into the first team, replacing George Clawley who had retired. According to Holley & Chalk's "The Alphabet of the Saints" he was "a daring and acrobatic goalkeeper who was also noted for his uncanny anticipation when facing penalty kicks".

Lock was unable to play in the semi-final against the eventual cup-winners Wolverhampton Wanderers as a result of a serious injury sustained on 14 March 1908 in a Southern League match at Watford's Cassio Road ground which put him out until the last fortnight of the season. The following season, he was once more the automatic choice for the 'keeper's shirt until he was again injured in the match at Cassio Road on 27 March 1909. Lock vowed never to play at Cassio Road again and ensured that this would not happen by moving to Scotland in the 1909 close season. Rangers In 1909 he moved to Glasgow to join Rangers where he was to become a mainstay of their championship winning sides over the next few years. He immediately became the first-choice 'keeper replacing Harry Rennie and in the
