Matt Glennon is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on October 8, 1978 in Stockport, Stockport, United Kingdom. Matthew William Glennon (born 8 October 1978) is an English former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.
In June 2001, he moved to Hull City after being signed by manager Brian Little for a £50,000 fee to compete with Paul Musselwhite for a first team place. He started the 2001–02 in goal despite struggling with his weight, but was replaced by Musselwhite in the second half of the campaign. Glennon regained the “Tigers” number one spot under Jan Mølby’s brief reign as manager, before he was allowed to leave for Roddy Collins’s Carlisle United on a free transfer in October 2002 after being deemed surplus to requirements at Boothferry Park by incoming manager Peter Taylor.
Glennon represented England at semi-professional level making two appearances for the England C team during his time at Carlisle United in 2005 when they were playing in the Conference National.
He went to Scotland to join SPL club Falkirk in July 2005 after saying he had been “bowled over by the quality of the stadium and training facilities”. He featured 23 times in the first half of the 2005–06 season before he decided to leave the club after being dropped for Allan Ferguson by manager John Hughes. He moved on to Scottish First Division side St Johnstone in January 2006 after manager Owen Coyle released back-up goalkeeper Mark Paston. At St Johnstone he scored his only senior goal, as a desperate last-minute attempt to equalise paid off in a 2–2 draw at Ross County on 11 March. Coyle offered Glennon a contract to stay at McDiarmid Park, but he instead chose to return south of the border to sign with Peter Jackson’s Huddersfield Town in June 2006.
He did manage to find regular football on loan at Carlisle United in the 2000–01 campaign, before securing a £50,000 move to Hull City in June 2001. He returned to Carlisle on a free transfer in October 2002, and helped the club to win promotion out of the Conference National as winners of the 2005 play- off Final. He then switched to Scottish side Falkirk, before signing with St Johnstone in January 2006, where he managed to score a goal.
