Bernard Streten
Bernard Streten Date of Birth: Jan 14, 1921 Share "Bernard Streten" on FacebookBefore becoming one of the all-time favourites at Kenilworth Road, Bernard was a well regarded amateur international goalkeeper plying his trade with Shrewsbury. He was enticed to Luton by an old team-mate, Frank Soo, in 1947 and was soon the Hatters first choice.
Although not very tall, Bernard made up for his lack of inches with agility and bravery as well as a certain amount of showmanship and went on to make 276 League appearances at a time when the Town boasted Welsh international Iorwerth Hughes and fellow England international Ron Baynham as goalkeeping opponents.
After retiring from the game in 1957, and taking over a business in Mundesley, Bernard was tempted back between the posts by Kings Lynn!
A publican in Bacton in later life, Bernard passed away in Norwich in 1994.
