Made In Wales

Proud Boy From The Valleys Who Shone At Wolves

Nigel Vaughan, Newport’s Player of the Year in the promotion and Welsh Cup winning side of 1979-80, was a product of local football and joined the groundstaff after a trial in December, 1974. “My brother Haydn was associated with County and knew Graham Reynolds,” he said. “They’d been trying to persuade me to go down for a while. I’d been playing for Lodge and also had a few games for Albion Rovers.”
