IN MEMORY OF...
...THOSE TOWN SERVANTS WHO DIED ON THIS DAY
December 18
 |
1968
Aged 51 |
George WALKER
Locally born, George netted 15 goals in just twenty reserve appearances in 1936/37 - but he was never given a first team chance by boss Ted Vizard. Taken ill on the rail journey home from Town's epic League Cup semi-final at The Hawthorns, George was found dead by the time the train had reached Stourbridge - just nine miles away. |
Full career history for these and every other STFC player can be found in the new book SWINDON TOWN: THE REGISTER 1895-2015 - available now from our ON LINE SHOP
