Philip Jonathan Hadland (born 20 October 1980) is an English retired professional footballer who played as a winger and current manager, who was last in charge of Colwyn Bay.[1] He played for a variety of Football League clubs including Reading, where he began his career and made his debut at the age of 17. He then joined Rochdale, where he made 32 appearances (his highest total for a league club), Leyton Orient, Carlisle, Brighton, Darlington and Colchester.[2]
He made his debut at the age of 17 against Barnsley at Madejski Stadium in Worthington Cup . Tommy Burns was the manager in the 1–1 draw.
Many of his team mates and coaches described Philip as a great technician and a wonderful human being.
Aside from football, Philip is known to have a sharp wit and is best known, to those close to him, as an entertainer and a philanthropist.
If he was asked to name 3 geniuses, he probably wouldn't say Einstein, Newton.... He'd say Milligan, Cleese, Everett... Sessions.
