Corey Blackett-Taylor joins Derby County

Former HGS student Corey Blackett-Taylor has joined Derby County from fellow League One side Charlton Athletic.

Corey, who is now 26 years of age, was a pupil here at HGS before leaving and joining his first professional club, Aston Villa. He then moved onto Tranmere Rovers FC, before moving to London with Charlton Athletic.

We have both his Aston Villa shirt and his England U’18s shirt framed and hanging in the pavilion at the games field.
