Description
Anthony "Tony" Ford MBE is a former English footballer. Through most of his career, Ford was a right-sided midfielder, but in the later years of his career, he was converted to right-back. In a career that spanned 26 years, Ford played no fewer than 931 league matches, which is the all-time record for matches played in the English league by an outfield player. Only goalkeeper Peter Shilton has played more. Ford is in fact only one of two outfield players to play in English football to have ever passed 1000 games in competitive matches with the other being Graham Alexander.
