Career
Born in South Shields, Anthony was a trainee at Sheffield United but failed to make the breakthrough into the first team squad, making only three league appearances as a substitute.[1] After brief spells at Swindon Town and Plymouth Argyle he settled at Carlisle United where he played regularly for three seasons.[1][2]
He subsequently dropped into non-league football before retiring some time after 2006 to run a guest house in Cumbria.[1]
