Timeline
Robert Joseph Hazell (born 14 June 1959) is a former professional footballer who made 266 league appearances in a 12-year career in the English Football League between 1977 and 1989.
Born in Jamaica, he represented England at under-21 level.
His nephew is the former Oldham Athletic defender Reuben Hazell, and his son Rohan was a non-League player.
A big physical defender, he began his career at Wolverhampton Wanderers, featuring in the FA Youth Cup final in 1976.
He began his career at Wolverhampton Wanderers, and featured in the 1976 FA Youth Cup final, which ended in a 5–0 aggregate defeat to West Bromwich Albion.
He turned professional at Molineux under Sammy Chung, and played 20 First Division games for Wolves in the 1977–78 season; despite only making his debut in December and being sent off in a 2–1 defeat to Arsenal in the FA Cup, he made such an impact in a central defensive partnership with John McAlle that he picked up the club's second ever Player of the Year award.
Hazell scored his first career goal in a 1–0 home win over Manchester City.
During his time at Wolves he represented the England Youth, playing two games in March 1977.
He played 13 games in the first half of the 1978–79 campaign.
He played in a benefit match for West Bromwich Albion player Len Cantello, that saw a team of white players play against a team of black players.
He moved on to Queens Park Rangers in 1979.
In September 1979, Hazell was transferred to Queens Park Rangers for a £240,000 fee, who had just been relegated into the Second Division.
Rangers finished fifth in 1979–80 under the stewardship of Tommy Docherty, two places and four points behind promoted Birmingham City.
Following this disappointment, Terry Venables was put in charge at Loftus Road.
He scored for the under-21 team in a 2–1 victory over Denmark in February 1979.
The "Hoops" then dropped to eighth position in 1980–81, before rising to fifth again in 1981–82, just two points behind promoted Norwich City.
He helped QPR to the Second Division title in 1982–83, and also played in the 1982 FA Cup final.
Hazell played for QPR in the 1982 FA Cup final against Tottenham Hotspur at Wembley, and provided the assist for Terry Fenwick to make the original tie a 1–1 draw.
However, a Glenn Hoddle penalty was enough to hand "Spurs" a 1–0 victory in the replay.
Perhaps his most impressive performance though came in the semi-final against West Bromwich Albion, where he marked Cyrille Regis out of the game.
Promotion was finally achieved in 1982–83, as Rangers won the Second Division title by a ten-point margin.
He moved on to Leicester City in 1983, and had a brief spell back on loan at Wolves in 1985, before he signed with Reading.
Hazell transferred to First Division rivals Leicester City in September of the 1983–84 campaign for a fee of £100,000.
He helped Gordon Milne's "Foxes" to post a 15th-place finish in 1984–85, but became plagued by injury problems.
He had a brief loan spell at old club Wolves in 1985–86, but could do little to prevent Sammy Chapman's side from slipping into the Fourth Division.
He was released from Filbert Street and played for Leeds United in the Yorkshire Cup.
He joined Port Vale in December 1986, and was a regular for the "Valiants" until a back injury forced his retirement in June 1989.
Hazell was born in Kingston, Jamaica.
He moved on to Second Division side Reading for the 1986–87 season, but made just four league appearances for Ian Branfoot's "Royals", before leaving Elm Park.
Reading wanted him on a short-term contract to cover for Paul Futcher, who was out with a fractured jaw.
Hazell joined Port Vale in December 1986.
He was reluctant to join due to the club's dire league placement but was talked round by former Leicester teammate Mark Grew.
He played 52 league and cup games in 1987–88, and gained some measure of revenge over Tottenham Hotspur in the FA Cup as he helped Vale to snatch a memorable 2–1 win; it was reported that he successfully intimidated Clive Allen by knocking him to the ground and telling him that "You’re going to get that for the next eighty-five minutes".
He made seventeen league appearances in Vale's 1988–89 promotion season, but injury meant he was unable to play in the play-off final victory over Bristol Rovers.
Hazell was a regular feature in the first XI until he received a back injury in January 1989.
Unable to overcome a back injury, he was given a free transfer in June 1989, having made 100 club appearances in all competitions at Vale Park.
Chairman Bill Bell refused to pay up his contract as he wanted to try and sell Hazell on to another club, and so the Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) decided to pay the remainder of his contract rather than try and take the club to court over the issue.
His signing proved to be another master-stroke by manager John Rudge, and along with defensive partner Phil Sproson, Hazell quickly shored up the "Valiants" defence before the end of season run-in to steer the club out of the Third Division relegation zone to a 12th-place finish.
He went on to serve as club captain, setting an example with his performances whilst commanding respect with his mentality and presence.
He was the first black player to captain the club.
