Personal information
Full name John David Stamps
Position(s) Forward

Jack "Jackie" Stamps (2 December 1918 – 19 November 1991) was an English footballer who scored two goals in the 1946 FA Cup Final for Derby County in a 4-1 win against Charlton Athletic. This is Derby's only FA Cup triumph. Stamps came close to scoring in regular time but the ball burst as he shot, making it easier to save. Stamps was famous for his powerful shot and is a cult figure in Derby County history, with the club's annual Player of the Year award being named after him.

In 1942–43, Stamps made 14 guest appearances for Southampton, scoring 11 goals.

There was a bar in Derby city centre named after him, but in the early 2000s it was changed to a Walkabout bar.
