Stanley Watson (17 March 1937 – 16 January 2014) was an English footballer who made 27 appearances in the Football League playing as a wing half or centre half for Darlington in the 1950s.[3] He made his debut playing at centre half on 8 February 1958 away to Workington, in a team weakened when heavy snow prevented some players from reaching the ground.[4]
Watson was married to British 400m runner Joy Grieveson.[5]
