Cyril Walker (footballer)
Cyril Walker (24 February 1914–2002) was an English professional football player and manager. Born in Newport Pagnell, Walker started his football career as a striker in Hertfordshire, with Hitchin Town and Leavesden Mental Hospital. He joined Watford as a professional in 1935, but after failing to play a competitive game, joined Gillingham at the end of the 1936–37 season. His time at Gillingham was brief; after scoring 4 goals in 11 competitive games, he moved clubs again in October 1937, this time to Sheffield Wednesday. He spent most of the rest of his career in English wartime or non-league football, but had a brief spell at Norwich City in 1946–47, before finishing his playing days at Snowdown Colliery Welfare, Dartford, Chatham Town and Margate. Following his playing career, Walker served as manager for Beckenham.[1]
