Graham Hawkins

Graham Hawkins is an English former footballer and football club manager.

Hawkins, a central defender, began his career with Wolverhampton Wanderers, making his debut in the derby against West Bromwich Albion in October 1964. However, he failed to establish himself and moved to Preston North End.

After a slow start to his Deepdale career, primarily due to injury, he became a regular and was appointed captain at the young age of 22. He played over 250 games before moving to Blackburn Rovers in June 1974.

He later finished his playing career at Port Vale where he became assistant manager.

He moved to a similar post at Shrewsbury Town before returning to Wolves where he was manager between 1982 and 1984. He guided Wolves to promotion back to the top flight, but left after they were relegated after just one season.

He later coached in Saudi Arabia.

He is currently the Football League's head of player development [ [http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/6304157.stm Crewe boss voices academy fears] ] .

Hawkins was born in Darlaston, approximately six miles east of Wolverhampton.
