Mick Harford

Michael Gordon Harford Date of Birth: Feb 12, 1959

One of the most popular players to have pulled on a shirt for Luton Town, Mick was the perfect centre-forward combining power in the air with a delicate touch on the deck. It is crying shame that he did not earn more than two England caps, both won while he was at Kenilworth Road, which he may have done were he to have been plying his trade at a more ‘fashionable’ club.

Sunderland born, Mick turned out for ten clubs in a long career but he enjoyed his best spell whilst at Luton, forming a tremendous partnership with Brian Stein, and was virtually unstoppable on his day with no defender relishing playing against him.

Mick subsequently coached and managed the Hatters before becoming Chief Recruitment Officer at Kenilworth Road .
