Who is Glyn Pardoe?
Glyn Pardoe is an English former footballer who played for Manchester City between 1962 and 1974. He made his first team debut against Birmingham City in April 1962. At nearly 16 years of age he became Manchester City's youngest ever player, a record which still stands in 2010.
A versatile right-footer who played mainly on the left, Pardoe was a forward early in his career, but converted to full-back in 1966, a position he retained for the rest of his career. Pardoe was part of the Manchester City team in the club's most successful era. Under the management of Joe Mercer and Malcolm Allison, the club won the league championship, FA Cup, League Cup and European Cup Winners' Cup in a three-year period.
After suffering a severe leg injury in 1970, Pardoe spent two years on the sidelines, and struggled to hold down a first team place upon his return. He retired in 1976, taking a place on the coaching staff, and remained at the club until 1992.
