Peter Derek Hatch (born 22 October 1949) is an English retired professional footballer who played as a left back and midfielder.

Career[edit]

Born in Wargrave,[1] Hatch turned professional with Oxford United in October 1966, making 19 league appearances over the next seven years.[2] He moved to Exeter City in December 1973,[2] on the same day as Keith Bowker, who he also initially lived with,[3] and went on to make 346 league appearances for the club.[1][4] He was with the club as they finished runners-up in the 1976–77 Fourth Division, gaining promotion.[5]

In 1982 he signed for Maltese club Hamrun Spartans, winning the national title during his first season with them.[2]

After that season he returned to the UK, playing for a number of non-league clubs including Bideford, Taunton Town, Barnstaple Town, Dawlish Town, Crediton United and Heavitree United.[2]

Exeter City gave him a testimonial match in October 1986, against first club Oxford United.[2]

After retiring from football, Hatch worked as postman in the Exeter area.[5]

In April 2018 he was inducted into the Exeter City Hall of Fame.[3]
