Wilkinson, Howard Howard lived in Rowan Close Portslade when I married and lived next door. I played for Shoreham United in the 60s and we got Howard to train us at Shoreham Middle Road school. He was a great motivator. He was paid 5 pounds!

Wilkinson, Howard Not the greatest winger in Owls history, but by no means the worst. I saw him put in some solid performances and score some cracking goals. He was, however, the best manager we have had since Harry Catterick.
