David Peach Biography

David Peach is one of the most popular and richest Footballer who was born on January 21, 1951 in Bedford, England, United Kingdom. David Sidney Peach (born 21 January 1951) is a former soccer player who played the left-back position for Southampton during the FA Cup Final 1976.

On the 18th of August 1979 He became the top scoring fullback during the history of Football League when he scored an extra point during a match with Manchester United.

He was transferred to Swindon Town for £150,000 (then Swindon’s record signing) in March 1980. Signed by Bobby Smith to replace Town legend John Trollope, circumstances were against Peach from the very moment he joined the club; his time at Swindon had the worst possible start – his debut coming in 6–2 defeat at Millwall. That defeat, along with the size of the transfer fee, got Peach off to a terrible start with the fans – and he was never a popular player throughout his whole Town career.

By March 1982, Swindon were in financial difficulties and Peach was released to Orient on a free transfer to reduce the club’s wage bill, after a disappointing period at the County Ground.

He was a regular player for his England youth and B teams as well as being part of the England team on their trip to South America in June 1977 however he did not play.

He made his debut the match that’s memorable to Saints supporters for all negative reasons, because Southampton lost 7-0 to Ipswich. Peach quickly settled into the team , starting in the midfield position before becoming an inventive, quick-thinking left-back who was a defensive player and the club’s usual penalty-taking player. His first penalty is probably the most well- known, as Peach scored the 2nd goal to beat Crystal Palace in the F.A. cup semi-final on April 3rd 1976. This brought his Saints through to the grand final, where they faced Manchester United.

Peach also played in the losing League Cup final against Nottingham Forest on 17 March 1979, scoring the opening goal. He and Nick Holmes are the only two players to have played in two Cup Finals for Southampton.
