He made a total of 231 appearances for the Owls, scoring 57 goals, between 1953 and 1965.
The Stalybridge product was a direct, pacey winger who made an indelible mark at Hillsborough during his 12-year stay.
Derek was a key performer as Wednesday clinched the 1959 Division Two title, scoring 11 goals in 39 games.
I imagine Pei would have seen him play back in the 50's & 60's.
I saw Derek play many times. Good player. R.I.P Derek.
