Chris Howarth
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chris Howarth (born May 23, 1986 in Bolton, England) is a young English goalkeeper who plays football for Bolton Wanderers.
After gaining the distinction of England schoolboy honours in 2001, this tall and agile player was signed up by his local club Bolton under the Academy scholarship scheme where he would spend three years under the supervision of the youth coaching team.
He was given a four-year professional contract in 2005 as the understudy to more senior keepers at Bolton such as Jussi Jaaskelainen, Ian Walker and Ali Al Habsi.
He joined Oldham Athletic at the start of the 2006/2007 season and made his debut in a game against Swansea City. He saved a penalty taken by Swansea icon Lee Trundle in this match. He has since returned to The Reebok.
