Colin Gregson (born 19 January 1958) is an English former professional footballer and FA Youth Cup winner who played for West Bromwich Albion, Sheffield Wednesday and Berwick Rangers. ==Early life== In 1969, whilst playing in a cup final for Wyndham Primary School, Gregson was noticed by Coventry City scout, Jimmy Nichol. At the end of the match Nichol approached Gregson’s father with an invitation for his son to take part in trials at the club during the school summer holidays of that year. Gregson took part in the trials and was accompanied to Coventry by his father. He repeated his trials with the club during the Easter holidays of 1970. Gregson represented various youth clubs including Newcastle City Boy’s (1969–74), Newbiggin Hall Boy’s Club (1971–72) and Montagu & North Fenham Boy’s Club (1972–74) being the club his father, Gordon, had played for 1949-50. In 1971 Gregson was noticed by West Bromwich Albion scout, Bill Emery and was invited to take part in trials at the club during the Christmas holidays of that year. In 1972, after having had trials with Newcastle United and Sunderland, he signed Associated Schoolboy Forms with WBA which prevented other clubs from approaching him. He regularly took part in trials at the club until he left school in 1974. In late 1972, whilst representing Montagu & North Fenham Boy’s Club, Gregson took part in a televised penalty competition held at St James’ Park and scored 6 out of 10 penalties against the Newcastle United goalkeeper, Iam McFaul. The show was later broadcast on Tyne Tees Television’s sports programme, "Sportstime", presented by George Taylor. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Colin Gregson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
