Team Players>> Paul Hodson (#1) Goalkeeper (1998-2000) Paul Hodson transfers from Blackburn Rovers to Harchester as their new first team goalie in the pre-season of 1998-99. In a memorable Boxing Day clash with Charlton Athletic at The Valley, Hodson takes action when Clive Mendonca pulls down Gary Blackburn without a fowl, and pulls Mendonca down which sees him sent off with a red. Midfielder Jimmy Russell takes his place in goal. The keeper for Harchester's historic FA Cup Final win against Manchester United, Hodson shares the role with youth team graduate Simon Coggan for 1999-00, before taking a transfer to Preston North End at the season's end. The character shares his name with prominent DT writer Paul Hodson, who between Seasons 1-6 wrote 30 (known) episodes plus 1 DT80's.
