Micky Droy

Droy was a tall and generally uncompromising defender. He played for Chelsea during a particularly turbulent period of the club's history, and was a part of the sides which were relegated to the Second Division in 1974–75, promoted back to the First Division in 1976–77, relegated again in 1978–79 and then promoted again in 1983–84. A feature on The Times' website summed him up as "six feet four inches of hard-core centre back, who had an unsentimental way with a headed clearance and who, from 1971, gave 15 years of no-nonsense service to a mortifyingly declining side." He was Chelsea's Player of the Year in 1978. After a brief loan spell with Luton Town, Droy left Chelsea in March 1985, joined Crystal Palace on a free transfer, then joined Brentford, before moving back to non-league football initially with Dulwich Hamlet and then for several years with Kingstonian, where he was appointed assistant manager in September 1994, before being appointed manager later in the month. Droy was removed from his post on 7 January 1995. Droy later played for Chelmsford Sunday League club Priory Sports under Garry Hill, alongside former internationals Alan Brazil and Paul Parker.

He ran a successful electrical business and moved to Florida.
