Local lad born
Brian Little was born up the road in Horden on this day in 1955. He signed for Pools aged 30 after playing for a number of clubs since leaving Aston Villa over a decade earlier. His time at Pools was effectively ended by a broken leg after just a handful of games. He later joined the coaching staff, acting as assistant manager to John Bird.
