Stoke City: Matthew Etherington announces retirement | Stoke Sentinel
Made his debut for Posh before his 16th birthday and created a real buzz around the club along with Simon Davies before both moved to Spurs too early in my opinion. He and Davies went on trial with Man Utd which is probably what caused other prem clubs to make their move.
I was was happy to see him overcome his gambling problems that he struggled with at Spurs and West Ham before finally settling at Stoke to become the premier league player us Posh fans knew he would be.
I'm sure he had a year or two left in the tank if not for his back injury.
Another Barry Fry gem
-plucked from u14 football to football league debut within 2 years.
