Billy Waugh

William (Billy) Lindsay WAUGH

Stationed at Bicester during the war, Billy was alerted to Luton officials by his father leading to him signing for the Town in 1944.
A super-fast winger, Billy was nicknamed ‘Rabbit’ by the Hatter’s fans and although not a prolific goalscorer, laid on many chances for the likes of Hugh Billington. After becoming the first Luton player to top 100 League appearances after the war, Billy fell out with manager Dally Duncan and transferred to QPR in 1950.
Following a three year spell at Loftus Road, Billy enjoyed a season at Bournemouth before several stints at non-League clubs combined with a job as an insurance agent.
Billy then spent thirty years as general secretary for Electrolux Sports before retiring in 1986. Billy moved from Luton to Felixstowe before sadly passing in 2009.
