Timeline

1961

Gary Ford (born 8 February 1961) is an English former footballer who played on the right-wing.

1978

The "Minstermen" were a mid-table Fourth Division team in 1978–79, but were only three points above the re-election zone in 1979–80.

1979

He made 435 appearances in all competitions for York City, scoring 64 goals, between 1979 and 1987 – a tally beaten by only four York City players.

He then moved on to Port Vale via Leicester City.

Ford started playing with small York based team, Leeman United, and then turned professional with York City at 18-years-of-age in February 1979 following a two-year apprenticeship.

1980

They finished bottom of the Football League in 1980–81, leading to Barry Lyons's departure as manager, before rising to 17th place in 1981–82.

1982

Following the arrival of new boss Denis Smith, York posted a seventh-place finish in 1982–83, lying just three places and four points outside the promotion places.

1983

They then ran away with the Fourth Division title in 1983–84, racking up 101 points and a goal difference ratio of +57.

1984

They finished eighth in the Third Division in 1984–85 and seventh in 1985–86, but only avoided relegation in 1986–87 by one place and four points.

During his eight years at Bootham Crescent, Ford racked up 435 appearances in league and cup competitions.

1987

After making a £25,000 transfer to Leicester City, Ford scored twice in sixteen Second Division appearances for the "Foxes" in 1987–88, before losing his place when Bryan Hamilton was replaced as manager by David Pleat.

Ford was bought by Port Vale in December 1987 for a £35,000 fee, dropping down into the Third Division to join John Rudge's "Valiants".

He scored three goals in 28 games in 1987–88.

1988

On 30 January 1988, he helped Vale to beat Tottenham Hotspur 2–1 in the fourth round of the FA Cup at Vale Park and described it as "one of the best games of my life".

However, he tore an Achilles tendon in November 1988 and struggled to make the first team until he underwent an operation to correct it in September 1989.

He hit eight goals in 28 games in 1988–89, but his injury ruled him out of the play-off final victory over Bristol Rovers.

1990

He recovered by March 1990 and went out to Walsall on loan, making 13 appearances for John Barnwell's "Saddlers" as they battled unsuccessfully to avoid finishing last in the Third Division.

During the 1990–91 season he was in action fairly frequently, scoring twice in 35 appearances, but was transferred to George Foster's Mansfield Town in March 1991, along with £80,000, in exchange for Kevin Kent.

1991

He played on loan for Walsall, before signing with Mansfield Town in 1991.

1993

After moving on to Telford United in 1993, Ford moved to Norway and plied his trade for Tromsø IL and Harstad IL.

Tromsø finished sixth in the Tippeligaen in 1993 under the stewardship of Harald Aabrekk.

1994

Harstad finished fifth in the Norwegian Second Division in 1994, before winning promotion as Group 6 champions in 1995.

1995

Two years later he joined Telford United, before heading to Norway with Tromsø IL and Harstad IL, before returning to England with Hartlepool United in 1995.

He then returned to England and the Football League in 1995, making three appearances for Hartlepool United, before he was forced to retire due to injury.

He went on to work as a youth coach at York City and at York University.

Ford was a winger known for his intelligent wide play and consistency.
