Stephen Redmond (born 2 November 1967) is an English former professional footballer who played as a central defender for Manchester City, Oldham Athletic and Bury.
[1] Redmond was part of a promising group of young players from the same intake, of whom he and Paul Moulden were the first to play for the first team.
In the final, City beat local rivals Manchester United over two legs, and as captain it was Redmond who lifted the trophy.
As the club season came to a close, Redmond received a call-up to the England under-19 team for a tour of South America.
[9] This included a 10–1 victory against Huddersfield Town that was the club's biggest win in the 20th Century, and a goalscoring tally that has not been equalled in English professional football since.
[1] Club captain Kenny Clements left Manchester City in the 1988 close season, and Redmond was appointed as his successor.
[1] He continued to play regularly until March 1992, when he lost his place to Michel Vonk,[11] and was transfer-listed shortly thereafter.
In October 1988 five of them were called up at the same time: Redmond, Ian Brightwell, Andy Hinchcliffe, Paul Lake and David White.
He played a single game for Burscough,[19] and then joined Leigh RMI of the Football Conference in August 2003,[20] and spent a season at the club.
