Autographs of Mike Hellawell

Michael Stephen Hellawell (30 June 1938 – 18 July 2023) was an English professional footballer who played as an outside forward. He made 322 appearances in the Football League and played twice for England in 1962.
The 17-year-old Hellawell signed for Queens Park Rangers in August 1955 from Salts, a small Yorkshire League club from Saltaire, and made his debut in the home match against Exeter City on 25 February 1956. That was his only senior appearance of the season, but in 1956–57 he missed only two matches in all competitions, and was selected to play for the Third Division South representative team against the Northern Section in April 1957. He played 45 games in the Football League for Rangers before being transferred to Birmingham City in 1957 in part-exchange for inside-forward Bill Finney and "a good fee". When questioned by disappointed supporters, manager Jack Taylor explained that Hellawell had signed for Rangers on condition that "they would not stand in his way if a First Division Club came after him."
Hellawell joined Birmingham City on 15 May 1957, and made his debut on 7 September, at home to Newcastle United, after the established outside right Gordon Astall was left out. The visitors took a 2–0 lead early in the second half before Hellawell, who had received little service on the wing, drifted into the centre, won the ball, and scored with a deflected shot from outside the penalty area. The match ended as a 4–1 defeat, Astall returned to the team, and Hellawell made only one more first-team appearance over the next two years, because of the form of Astall and Harry Hooper as well as his National Service duties. He had a short run in the side in the 1959–60 season, was considered unlucky to lose his place, and finally established himself after Hooper's transfer to Sunderland in September 1960.
