Paul Clayton (footballer)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Paul Spencer Clayton (b. 4 January 1965 in Dunstable) is a former professional footballer.

Clayton began his career with Norwich City. He was a member of the club's youth team that won the FA Youth Cup in 1983 and scored twice in the final. However, he was unable to establish himself in the Norwich first team - making just 15 appearances without scoring - and moved to Darlington in 1988 for a fee of £25,000, a Darlington club record. After scoring 3 goals in 22 games he moved to Crewe Alexandra in 1989.

After playing non-league football for Macclesfield Town, Stafford Rangers, Stalybridge Celtic and Northwich Victoria, Clayton left football and worked for the National Health Service as a hospital theatre technician.
