What follows is a list of players that have
progressed from Hednesford Town FC to play professional football at some
of the most senior clubs in the country. It goes right back to the very
early days of the club.
Note that this is NOT intended to be a definitive
list. Many of these players were locally born lads and the list is going
to be regularly added to both as a whole and as more information is
unearthed on the players.
These fascinating documents have been put together by
club historian Dave Shaw and I'm very pleased that he has allowed me to
make them available to supporters via this website. Each document has
been converted to pdf format for easy download. You need Adobe Acrobat
Reader to view, which is probably already installed on your computer but
if not you can
download it here for free
Just click the download icon to view each document
and I hope you will all find them as interesting as I have... Steve
