Timeline
Neil Sullivan (born 24 February 1970) is a professional football player and coach.
He played as a goalkeeper from 1988 until 2013, playing in the Premier League for Wimbledon, Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea, and represented Scotland internationally.
He started his career with Wimbledon, and remained with The Dons for twelve years during which he made 181 league appearances.
He began his career with local club Wimbledon in 1988, amassing a total of 224 appearances between 1988 and 2000.
He also played one game on loan for Crystal Palace in 1992.
He was initially an understudy for Hans Segers, and then spent the 1995–96 season vying with Paul Heald for the job as Wimbledon's regular goalkeeper, before making the position his own for the 1996–97 season.
Sullivan conceded a famous goal by David Beckham scored from the halfway line, while he was off his line, in August 1996.
Between 1997 and 2003, Sullivan was capped 28 times by Scotland.
It was during his tenure at Wimbledon that Sullivan was often acknowledged as one of the best goalkeepers in the league marked by his selection for the division's 1997–98 team of the season.
He was selected for the 1998 FIFA World Cup, where he was the second choice goalkeeper behind Jim Leighton.
Sullivan was born in Sutton, Greater London.
In 2000, he moved to Tottenham Hotspur where he replaced Ian Walker as the club's favoured keeper.
In 2000, after Wimbledon's relegation, Sullivan moved from Wimbledon to Tottenham Hotspur, where he made over 80 appearances.
He helped Tottenham reach the 2002 Football League Cup Final which they lost to Blackburn Rovers.
In 2003, he departed Tottenham after losing his place in the team and was signed as a back-up keeper by rivals Chelsea.
However Macho picked up a serious knee injury and Chelsea moved to replace him with Sullivan.
Sullivan was to compete with Ambrosio for providing back up to Cudicini.
He made his debut in a League Cup tie against Reading on 3 December 2003.
His league debut followed against Portsmouth on 28 December 2003.
In all Sullivan made eight appearances for Chelsea, four of which came in the league.
In 2004, he moved to freshly relegated Football Championship side Leeds United where he remained until 2007.
Sullivan beat off competition for number one spot from young goalkeeper Scott Carson.
Leeds were debt-ridden and had just been relegated from the Premier League when Sullivan joined them.
In his first season (2004–05), he was voted as the club's Player of the Year after some superb saves throughout the season, including saving several penalties for Leeds in games against Wolverhampton Wanderers, Cardiff City, Burnley and Nottingham Forest.
Leeds finished 10 points off the playoffs after a season of rebuilding.
In his second season at Leeds he continued his penalty saving prowess, saving one in a 1–0 win away at Stoke City, and Leeds went on to reach the playoff final against Watford with Sullivan again having a decent season.
But the playoff final ended in defeat for Leeds, losing 3–0 and Sullivan scoring an own goal.
Whilst at Leeds he eventually lost his place in the team and was loaned out to Doncaster Rovers in both 2006 and 2007.
Due to an injury picked up in the pre-season match against Nottingham Forest, Sullivan made few appearances in the 2006–07 campaign for Leeds, with loan goalkeeper Tony Warner filling in whilst Sullivan was injured.
Wise decided to sign Graham Stack on loan to compete with Warner and Sullivan.
On 23 November 2006, he moved on loan to Doncaster Rovers.
His loan was however cut short and he returned to Leeds on 21 December 2006.
In 2007, he joined Rovers on a permanent deal where he remained the club's favoured keeper until the 2012–13 season when he was loaned to AFC Wimbledon, the side formed after the relocation of his first club.
Sullivan returned to Doncaster towards the end of the year and aided Doncaster to the League One title.
In July 2013, he announced he was leaving Doncaster.
After rejecting offers to prolong his playing career, he started working as a goalkeeping coach.
