Alan Hudson was one of the true greats, a footballing maverick. George Best said ‘he was the finest player of his generation.’ German International, and current World champion Gunter Netzer, said after they played, ‘where have England been hiding this player?’

The original rebellious Kings Road kid burst onto the football scene at a time that London was truly swinging. Alan Hudson's career was one long roller-coaster ride and was marked by clashes with the establishment and the authorities. His was a rags to riches and back again story, the highs saw him winning European trophies and playing for his country and the lows include a hit and run incident that put him in a coma for 59 days. Alan truly believes the 'accident' was actually an attempt on his life.
