    Antony Richard Cottee, A.K.A. Tony Cottee, enjoyed a very glorious soccer career as one of the most recognizable strikers of his time but continued to struggle badly in his personal life. After being left by his wife in such a horrible situation, let’s see what Tony has to say after 8 years of their divorce. This is one of the most heartbreaking stories in the football industry.
    Born on 11 July 1965 in the district of Forest Gate, London, Tony didn’t come into this world with a silver spoon in his mouth. His parents belonged to a working class who had to go through endless struggles to ensure a proper upbringing of their child. His father worked as a factory worker and his mother was a school cleaner whose combined income wasn’t sufficient to fulfill even their important needs. But these endless struggles taught Tony the value of hard work and resilience, which he would demonstrate on the field later. Despite their financial struggles, Tony’s parents encouraged him to play football. And from his early days, the kid showed exceptional talent and a natural affinity for the sport.

    As a young footballer in the 80s I loved watching Tony bang in the goals with Frank,West Ham were an exciting team to watch and played good football. Hated Frank when he played with Celtic but respected him ,even more now. This is a story which we see so much with ex football players. Best of luck to Tony!

    I remember his debut goal on Match of the Day , I think against Tottenham. As an Evertonian I'll never forget his debut for us against Newcastle on the opening day. A hat trick with the first insde 30 seconds. Never heard anyone have a bad word to say about TC. Great goalscorer and a lovely person.

    Have met him a few times, he was always polite, friendly and sociable. He was great at Leicester City 🦊 .... A fantastic signing, an inspired signing by the then Manager Martin O'Neill. It seemed that nobody else wanted him. Formed a great partnership with a very young Emile Heskey. Was always a delight to watch him playing ....

      Tony Cottee was utter garbage for Everton, scored 99 goals and never once proved to be a big match winner, Graeme Sharpe said he was never a team player, if he scored the only goal in a 3 1 defeat he would believe he had done his job and others had let the team down.
      GO ON , name me one BIG game were Cottee scored us the winner, you will still be searching in 10 years time.
      Left Neville Southall out of his all time best 11 for a shitty West Ham keeper, total bluffer

      @@johnbarton3252 I think overall his career with us was disappointing, not garbage. But since he joined us in 1988 nobody has scored more than his 99 goals for the club. He scored lots of his goals against the weaker top flight sides and lower league sides in the cup, bit of a flat track bully, to go with lots of missed penalties, but I don't think he ever had a partner he truly gelled with at Everton or we gave him the right service. I think the biggest goal he ever scored for us was a late winner ironically at West Ham at the back end of the 93/94 season when we were deep in relegation trouble. It proved to be his last Everton goal.
