David Court

David Court Date of Birth: Mar 1, 1944

Joining Arsenal from school, David earned an occasional first team place at Highbury as a forward but after manager Billy Wright moved him back into the half-back line in 1964 he became a regular member of the side for the remainder of the decade.

It was regarded a major coup by Luton manager Alec Stock when the Mitcham born midfielder was enticed to Kenilworth Road in 1970 for £35,000 but he did little to enhance his reputation and moved on to Brentford two years later.

After a spell at Barnet, David retired to look after his Brookmans Park delicatessen before going back to Arsenal, coaching in their academy as assistant to Liam Brady.
