isherwood was born in brierley hill , staffordshire .
he played representative football for brierley hill schools before joining birmingham city when he left school in 1962 .
he turned professional two years later , and made his debut in the second division on 31 december 1966 in a 3 -- 3 draw away to norwich city .
ray martin had been injured for some weeks , and isherwood played at right back to allow martin 's regular deputy bert murray to switch to the left in place of the unavailable colin green .
he had a run of four games in similar circumstances later that season , and scored the winning goal against hull city in the first of these , but martin 's return to fitness pushed him down the pecking order .
in 1968 he moved into non-league football with bromsgrove rovers and later played for kidderminster harriers .
after retiring from football , isherwood took up tennis .
he went on to win local doubles titles and has played for hereford and worcester county over-55s team .
