Clive Goodyear

Clive Goodyear Date of Birth: Jan 15, 1961

After signing for Luton Town as a 17 year old from Lincoln United in 1978, tall and powerful central defender Clive was happy to learn his trade as understudy to Mike Saxby.

A bad knee injury suffered by Saxby early in the 1981/82 season gave Clive his big chance and he was awarded with a medal at the campaign’s end as the Hatters won the championship of the old Division Two.

Never looking out of place in the top flight Clive was eventually sold to Plymouth where he made over 100 appearances before moving to Wimbledon in time to pick up an F.A.Cup winners medal in 1988.

A qualified physio, Clive worked for a number of League clubs, including the Town, but after leaving Chester began concentrating on his practice in Bletchley.
