Graham Matthews
Graham Matthews is an English former footballer who played in the Football League for Crewe Alexandra, Stoke City and Walsall.Matthews was born in Newcastle-under-Lyme and joined his local club Stoke City in 1960. He played twice in 1960–61 and made twelve appearances in 1961–62 scoring twice. Unfortunately for Matthews in October 1961 Stoke manager Tony Waddington brought the legendary Stanley Matthews back to the club.
