Walter David Pyle (12 December 1936 – 8 February 2002) was a professional footballer who played as a centre half in The Football League for Bristol Rovers and Bristol City between 1955 and 1963. Born in Trowbridge, Pyle started his career playing in his home town for Trowbridge Colts, before graduating to senior side Trowbridge Town in 1954. After a year playing non-League football for them he signed his first professional contract in 1955 when he joined Bristol Rovers. He played 139 League games for Rovers in seven years, but when they were relegated to the Football League Third Division in 1962 he crossed the city to join Bristol City. During his single season with City he played eight games in the Football League, but returned to non-League football at the end of the campaign when he joined Westbury United. After a year playing for Westbury United he was appointed as their manager, and he remained in the position for two years. Away from football Pyle was landlord of a series of public houses. While playing in Bristol he ran the Pelican in Old Market, before returning to his home county of Wiltshire and running the Horse and Groom in Westbury and then the Kings Arms in Hilperton. ==Sources== * * 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「David Pyle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
