Terry Curran

Edward (Terry) Curran (born 20 March 1955) is an English former professional footballer whose career lasted from 1975 to 1988.

He signed for Nottingham Forest in August 1975, with Rovers receiving £50,000 plus keeper Dennis Peacock and winger Ian Miller.

Curran lost favour after a disagreement with Forest assistant manager Peter Taylor, and he made a written transfer request in August 1977, which was accepted.

Curran stayed less than a year at Southampton, making 26 appearances in the 1978–79 season and playing in the League Cup semi-final victory over Leeds United.

Curran was involved in an incident the following season in a match at Oldham on 6 September 1980 when he was sent off after a fracas with Simon Stainrod caused Wednesday fans to riot, which led to the closure of Hillsborough terraces for the next four home games.
