  • Brian Stanton (born 7 February 1956 in Liverpool) Before becoming professional he was a amateur footballer in the local Liverpool leagues and also played a number of games for New Brighton. In November 1975 he joined Bury on amateur forms, for whom he later signed professional forms in March 1976 at the age of 20, following the conclusion of his engineering apprenticeship. An energetic and hardworking midfielder for Bury, Huddersfield Town (Wrexham on loan for one month in 85/86 season) and Rochdale. He also had a short period at the then non-league Morecambe before going back to the professional ranks for a couple of seasons with Rochdale until 1988 when he was released by the then manager, ex-Leeds legend, Eddie Gray. Having left Rochdale he later had a couple of seasons with the famous but now defunk, Colne Dynamoes. According to the Huddersfield Daily Examiner, although not confirmed, he is widely believed to hold the record for the fastest hat-trick (6mins) for a player that isn't a striker [three of four goals] in the game against local rivals Bradford City in a 6-3 win on 1 January 1983. After retiring from the game he retrained to become a carpenter/joiner and worked for several years in this capacity until a back injury curtailed his career whilst working for Bury Council. Fortunately he was later able to gain an office position as a Planning Enforcement Officer with Bury and then moved to Bolton Council in 2003. He is an avid supporter of Liverpool F.C.. He is married to property lawyer Angela and has three children, Oliver, Victoria & Lydia.
