PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALLERS' ASSOCIATION SUPPORTING ACTION FOR DAVE WATSON

- By JAMIE GARDNER

Family of former Rams star Dave continue their legal fight for recognition of head injuries

Dave and Penny Watson

THE legal fight to have former England captain and Derby County player Dave Watson's neurological condition recognised as being the result of head injuries sustained during his playing days will continue next week.

Watson, who won 65 England caps and starred for Sunderland and Manchester City in the 1970s, as well as for Derby County in the 1980s, has been diagnosed with probable Alzheimer's and probable chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a progressive brain disorder linked to repeated head injuries.

Dave - who was born in Stapleford - began and ended his Football League career with Notts County, and also spent the 1983-84 season with the Rams.

He and his family are seeking industrial injury benefits because they argue injuries he suffered during his career are linked to his current condition.
