Greg Halford on Hashtag United, Premier League days and what "held me back" in 21-year career

Despite turning 38 last December, Greg Halford is still going strong after winning just his second promotion in the 21st season of his career.

The ex-Wolves and Nottingham Forest utility man signed for Hashtag United, who were in the eighth tier of English football, last summer. Halford had been playing his football for National League South side Billericay, before making the two-tier drop to The Tags.

It is safe to say Halford has impressed since his move to Hashtag. The defender scored eight times in 32 league appearances as The Tags stormed to the Isthmian North Division title last month, securing their place at Step 3 next season - the highest tier the club has ever been at since forming in 2016.
