Scott Houghton

Scott Houghton Date of Birth: Oct 22, 1971

Hitchin born Scott was an England schoolboy international and attended the F.A. School of Excellence before signing on for Tottenham where a glittering career was promised.

Apart from scoring two goals against the Hatters in 1991 Scott was sadly unable to make a name for himself at White Hart Lane and moved to David Pleat’s Luton in 1993 where he was a little more successful.

A year later, though, the little midfielder or winger with a blistering shot was on his way to Walsall where he probably found his level and from there he moved to Peterborough, Southend and Leyton Orient before finishing his League career with Halifax.

Scott subsequently made a tour of the non-League clubs in Beds, Herts and Cambs before becoming a police officer.
