BIRTHS

1877 - Thomas Haywood

 

Walsall-born Tom Haywood played local non-league football before signing for Aston Villa in April 1904. He joined Albion for a £75 fee less than a year later but the half-back struggled to become a regular in the Baggies' first team. In November 1908 and after having made just 15 first team appearances he joined Crewe Alexandra on a free transfer. He finished his playing career with local side Darlaston in 1915 before going on to serve in the First World War. He died in his home town in 1947 at the age of 70.
