Doug Beach
Doug Beach Date of Birth: Feb 2, 1920 Share "Doug Beach" on FacebookSpotted by Luton Town manager George Martin, while partnering another future Hatter Billy Cooke in an army representative match, Doug was a regular full-back at Kenilworth Road during the last war-time season as well as the first peacetime campaign.
A tough full-back who could play on either flank, Doug was transferred to Southend in July 1947 after the Hatters signed the expensive Billy Hughes and from then he moved to non-League sides Colchester, Chelmsford and Biggleswade.
After leaving the game, Watford born Doug became a private gardener at Bricket Wood and on retiring in 1985 settled in Cornwall before passing away in 2006.
