Welcome to Tony Cottee our new Patron

Sun, 14 Aug 2011 09:41:34 GMT

Former West Ham and England Footballing Legend, and now Sky Sports Commentator/Football Pundit

Born in West Ham, East London, a lifelong West Ham fan, and family man with 3 children.
Making his first team, First Division debut for West Ham aged just 17 in 1983 and making it very memorable, scoring the first goal in a 3-0 win against Tottenham. By the age of 20 Tony had scored an amazing 37 League goals. Tony received the PFA Young Player of the Year in 1986, and that season had 20 goals with his name on them. The following season saw an even more impressive 22 league goals, and a further 13 goals followed for Tony in 1987-1988. By the age of 23 Tony had played 212 league games for The Hammers with 92 goals scored.

Tony's other signings included Everton, Leicester City, Norwich City, Barnet, Millwall and the Malaysian side Selangor, and Birmingham City on loan. He was also capped seven times for England.

His final tally was 579 League games and 226 goals and with competitions this increased to 712 games with 293 goals. Tony exceeded his ambition to score 200 League goals in his career.

Tony has not only been a success on the pitch but also off of it, he now commentates for Sky Sports and is a regular Pundit on the radio. He has also been very involved with charitable causes, in May 2011 he managed an ex-West Ham Team in a Charity Event organised by Football for Fans, with his team raising money for Great Ormond Street Hospital. In 2010 Tony was involved with a Charity Golf Day for Alzheimer's, in 2009 Tony kicked off a toy appeal for needy children in Newham, and in 2008 Tony supported Cards for Good Causes which have helped various charities including St Francis Hospice in Havering-atte-Bower and St Luke's Hospice in Basildon, Essex.

A sporting legend, with commitment, drive and determination, and generally an all-round nice guy what more could Clowns ask for?
